Women's Hour tomorrow - 18 June 2024 - hustings with women candidates?

[IwantToRetire]

I may have misheard this, but there was a short promo for this after WATO today.

Dont listen to Women's Hour myself, but it seems that tomorrow there will be some women candidates being questioned on their Party's policies.

Just in case anyone is interested.

And if I misheard sorry, and please dont hesitate to point this out!!

Thanks, I'm interested!

Not holding out much hope mind you

I’ll send questions like “what is non binary “ for the Lib Dem’s

10am tomorrow. No KJK…yet there is Reform is represented.

Oh interesting thanks for sharing

Thanks - glad to know I didn't mishear.

Will try and catch up with it later tomorrow based on recommendations from FWR.

But not if it is just going to make my blood boil, or would it be run cold?

Is there info anywhere?

Sometimes WH tweet, to give people the heads up

I just had a look, nothing on twitter so far

Radio 4 website

Thanks!

All I can find is:

We speak to senior women from the seven main political parties in Great Britain

Who are the "7" and is there an option to send in a question.

If there is more info can you post the link?

Thanks

Tory?
Labour?
Lib Dem?
Green?
SNP?
Plaid Cymru?
Sinn Féin?

or ................

They just announced who was on before the 8 o'clock headlines on radio 4. Will try to scribe in a bit; I'm in a rush!

Hannah Bardell SNP

Maria (?) reform

Ellie Ch...? Greens

Daisy cooper Lib Dem's

Lyn Davies conservatives

Annalise Dodds Labour

Liz Savile Roberts Plaid Cymru

This was really interesting and worth listening back to. The first question was ‘what is a woman?’. Most participants responded by speaking about the rights and dignity of trans people, using words like ‘compassion’, ‘respect’ and ‘toxic debate’.

Almost no reference to women’s rights, dignity, safety, privacy, sports. It was all about men (and trans-identifying women not mentioned at all, I don’t think).

Thread here - Annalise was clearly a last minute change
