    The Whip - Ruth Edwards
    Jan 3 2025

    Meet the awesome Ruth Edwards, who was a government whip and MP for Rushcliffe. She takes us inside the politics at the highest level. We discuss the upcoming political outlook, especially the challenge to the Conservative Party from Reform. There is also much reflection on the 2024 election, and thoughtful and snappy content on personal resilience and women in politics. And if you are a non-political dog lover, there is plenty for you in here too!

    Sound and production by Tim Bennett and intro / outro narrated by Billy Sorrow (of the Obama 2012 'Something' ad fame). Music written and performed by 'The Bennett Twins' Tim and Jason Bennett of Glenview IL, USA.
