In Conversation with Kemi Badenoch
Join Heather Binning in conversation with special guest Kemi Badenoch, Leader of HM Opposition, Leader of the UK Conservative Party and Conservative MP for North West Essex.
After a career in IT and then in the financial sector, she turned her sights to politics, taking her seat in Parliament in 2017. Amongst her many roles in Government and in opposition, she has been Minister for Women and Equalities
Kemi discusses the frustration elected representatives face when agenda driven activists are provided the loudest voice on Select committees that are failing in their duty to scrutinise government policy and performance without prejudice.
WRN members questions are put to Kemi on topical issues such as the concerning impact on our younger generations accessing highly sexualised, degrading material via the internet, Bridget Phillipson's delay in approving the EHRC guidance, women’s rights as a focal electoral issue and the power of women supporting each other, regardless of political leaning.
