Walk into Dr Helen Pankhurst’s home and you’d know straightaway which famous family she’s a part of. From suffragette sashes to her purple, white and green colour scheme. Perhaps it’s no wonder she’s now a celebrated activist herself, winning a CBE for services to gender equality. Matt and Alice sat down with Helen to discuss the effect her family has had on Britain, her take on the climate change protestors of today, and how Labour’s new gender-balanced cabinet will change the country.
