MP with Baby Forced to Leave Parliament in Kenya
肯尼亚一名带着孩子的议员被迫离开议会
A female MP was asked to leave parliament in Kenya this week after bringing her five-month-old baby with her to work. Zuleika Hassan explained that she brought her baby because she was unable to get childcare that day, and there was no nursery on site. Other female MPs showed support for their colleague by walking out of the chamber with her. While the house rules say that “strangers” including children are not allowed in the chamber, the MP argued that the government should set an example by offering family-friendly workspaces.
本周,肯尼亚一名女议员带着五个月大的孩子去上班,随后被要求离开议会。Zuleika Hassan解释说,她带着孩子去上班是因为那天她无法获得儿童照管,而且现场没有托儿所。其他女议员也随她一起离场,对其表示支持。尽管众议院规定,包括儿童在内的“陌生人”不允许进入众议院,但这位议员认为,政府应该以身作则,提供对家庭友好的工作场所。
