Equality in Westminster: Is the Government Taking Sexism Seriously?
Manage episode 418374875 series 2789767
The government has rejected some of the key recommendation of a Treasury committee report into sexism and misogyny in the financial services industry. Our equality reporter Olivia Konotey-Ahulu brings us details of the government's response.
It comes after MPs narrowly passed a bill which could see lawmakers arrested for violent or sexual assault banned from the parliamentary estate. We discuss what it means for attitudes towards issues of violence against women and broader equality with Sophia Moreau, deputy leader of the Women's Equality Party. Hosted by Tiwa Adebayo and Stephen Carroll.
