Archaic, exclusive and impenetrable - is there any way parliament can be dragged into the 21st century?


Anum Qaisar - at the time of recording the SNPs newest Westminster MP - and Emma Crewe, professor of anthropology at SOAS, join Armando and Ailbhe Rea to explore what’s prevented parliament from evolving into a modern, 21st-century legislature and why it’s still a tough place for MPs from non-traditional backgrounds.


Guests

Anum Qaisar is a female, muslim, Scottish Pakistani former school teacher elected as the SNP MP for Airdre and Shotts in 2021.


Emma Crewe is a professor of anthropology at SOAS who has studied the workings of the House of Commons and House of Lords.
