Correction: We've just seen *88* women elected MP… proportionately, almost twice as many as were elected 27 years ago.

1988 = 39 of 295 seats (13.2%)
1993 = 53 of 295 seats (17.8%)
1997 = 62 of 301 seats (20.6%)
2000 = 62 of 301 seats (20.6%)
2004 = 65 of 308 seats (21.1%)
2006 = 64 of 308 seats (20.8%)
2008 = 68 of 308 seats (22.1%)
2011 = 77 of 308 seats (25.0%)
2015 = 88 of 338 seats (26.0%)
