Harriet Harman (2017 Event)

When Harriet Harman was elected in 1982, she notes in her memoir
A Woman’s Work, the House of Commons was 97% male. Since then,
she has led the way on all-women shortlists, introduced laws on
equality and domestic violence and has twice become Labour’s
Acting Leader. In this event, recorded live at the 2017 Edinburgh
International Book Festival, we meet a feminist politician who
has made a real difference. Chaired by Ruth Wishart.
