Westminster After May: Dawn Butler, Caroline Nokes on Being a Woman in Parliament
The second woman to become prime minister, Theresa May, has announced she will be leaving parliament at the next election. Although the former PM was known for Brexit, she also was a champion of getting more women involved in public life. It's a task that seems ever harder in the age of social media and abuse.
We discuss the realities of being a woman in Westminster with Caroline Nokes, Conservative MP and Chair of the Women and Equalities Committee and Dawn Butler, Labour MP for Brent Central. Hosted by Ailbhe Rea and Stephen Carroll.
