In this bumper bank holiday episode of Chopper's Politics, Christopher Hope is joined by the Chair of the Women and Equalities Committee, Caroline Nokes MP, in the Red Lion pub, to talk about a tough week to be a woman in Westminster. She shares her personal experience of being on the receiving end of questionable sexist behavior, argues that whips need to be better at seeing the talents of their female colleagues and muses on "a certain type of particularly macho willy-waving man" that is drawn to a life in politics.

Also on the podcast, Lib Dem Leader Sir Ed Davey on why he's championing rural voices, and being 'fighting fit' for next week's local elections, and Shadow Levelling Up Secretary, Labour's Lisa Nandy, on the cost of living crisis and experiencing sexism on the benches.
