Dame Stella

Dame Stella Rimington at a talk and book signing I went to today. She was the first female Director General of MI 5. She spoke about the difficulties of being a pioneering woman in such a role.
The tabloid press initially referred to her as a housewife and a mum of two spy chief. All the usual patronising rubbish. A highly interesting and amusing speaker.
