ON JULY 15th, David Cameron reshuffled his government. There are many reasons for switching ministers around, but one of those briefed to journalists was to make the government look less “pale, male and stale”. Middle-aged white men had little chance of promotion, it was said, while women would be promoted in droves. Did Mr Cameron succeed? Our graphic below shows that the cabinet is ever so slightly less male, but it hasn’t become any less pale or stale (insofar as being old makes one stale).
