Election Of First Woman President In Chile

EDM number 1368 in 2005-06, proposed by Joan Ruddock on 16/01/2006.

That this House congratulates Michelle Bachelet on her election as President of Chile, the first female head of state in South America; applauds her principled election campaign in which she described herself as 'a woman, a socialist, separated and agnostic — all the sins together'; and notes her distinguished career as first health and then defence minister in the centre left coalition government, her torture and detention under the Pinochet regime and her consistent support for women and human rights.

This motion has been signed by a total of 128 MPs.
