Mrs May, who was addressing the Fawcett Society on Saturday,... She said: "Looking at its elected representatives, you will see a predominantly white, male party. Given that we now see an ethnically diverse society, where women increasingly play a major role, the Conservative Party just doesn't look like the people that it is claiming to represent. She said the reason the Tories lost the last election was the "ultimate NO-BRAINER".
