UK Independence Party leader Nigel Farage has claimed that women, who work in the city and have children, are worth less than men.
He said that a woman, who has a client base, has a child and takes two or three years off, is worth far less to her employer after she comes back because that client base won't be stuck as rigidly to her portfolio, Sky News reports.
The UKIP leader said that he did not believe there was sexual discrimination in the city because women, who were prepared to sacrifice the family life and stick with their career, could do just as well as men.
