Women in Politics: A Documentary (MP3)

A new radio documentary from the Electoral Reform Society is shedding light on the obstacles facing female parliamentarians.

The documentary, made in association with Women’s Parliamentary Radio, examines the issue at home and abroad. It asks why now, 90 years since women won the right to sit in parliament, that their numbers remain so embarrassingly low.

The Electoral Reform Debate (MP3)

Reformers say that the current voting system of FPTP - First Past the Post - discriminates against women and ethnic minorities in favour of the sitting candidate - overwhelming white males. In this special documentary debate, sponsored by the Electoral Reform Society, WP Radio asked MPs from all parties why they are or are not in favour of electoral reform.

The debate is chaired by Jackie Ashley of the Guardian and BBC. Round the table the MPs are Chris Huhne, Shadow Home Affairs Spokesman for the Liberal Democrats, Caroline Spelman Chairman of the Conservative Party, the Labour MP Stephen Pound and academic Professor Nina Fishman who sits on the Electoral Reform Society Board.
