Good Looking Girl Wanted To "Get The Students In"

An advert on Twitter for a “good looking girl” to work in the front office of a property agent provoked a storm.

The advert was placed by Modelling Network in Cardiff.

A longer version of the advert appeared on Facebook, saying: “Looking for a good looking girl to work in the front office of a property agents in Cathays, Cardiff to get the students in.”

It was seen by no less than former Labour deputy leader Harriet Harman, who helpfully tweeted: “This is unlawful under Equality Act.”

Copying in Cardiff Central MP Jo Stevens, she demanded to know if the Equality and Human Rights Commission was going to do anything about it.

EHRC tweeted to say that it would investigate, and thanked Harman for bringing it to its attention.

Others joined in, with one tweet saying that not only was the advert unlawful but blatantly sexist, but some took the opportunity to hurl abuse at Harman.

Both the Tweet and Facebook posts have been deleted.
