Oh dear. Sir Stuart Rose, chairman of the UK chain Marks & Spencer, recently declared that “there are really no glass ceilings, despite the fact that some of you moan about it all the time.”

‘Women can get to the top of any single job that they want to in the UK,” Stuart tells the Observer, “I mean, what else do you want to do, for God’s sake? Women astronauts. Women miners. Women dentists. Women doctors. Women managing directors. What is it you haven’t got?” [Guardian]
