In our episode of Tales from the Green Benches this week we're looking at historically under-represented MPs: those who weren't male, white and middle-class. You get a really different perspective on what parliament was like from these interviews.
In this week's episode of Tales from the Green Benches, #HistParl's podcast, we're looking at those who didn't fall into the stereotypical image of an MP- or who weren't necessarily in 'the club'.
Listen to the episode, featuring this clip, wherever you get your podcasts!
