Minister for Women, Harriet Harman, who is known for her staunch feminist views has been nominated for the annual Rear of the Year award.

The Leader of the House who wants pictures of Page 3 girls banned from the workplace to protect the sensitivity of staff has had twelve nominations.

Rear of the Year organiser Tony Edwards said: "These are not large numbers but a dozen nominations in one week usually indicates encouragement on a fan-based website or an organised group effort of some kind.

"It happens, from time to time, with celebrities in the public eye whose blogs and websites sometimes promote them as potential candidates.

"But we've never seen it happen before with an MP in the 28 years the competition has been going."

Sally Allen, boss of Wizard Jeans which is sponsoring the presentations at London's Dorchester Hotel in June, said Miss Harman was clearly comfortable wearing trousers and slacks.

She said: "She's frequently seen in Downing Street and at the despatch box in black slacks and short jackets."

Last year's winners was Rachel Stevens, while Denise van Outen and Charlotte Church have been deemed worthy recipients in years gone by.
