In another episode brought to you in partnership with 50:50 Parliament, this week I sit down with the formidable Baroness Jenkin of Kennington, or Anne as she prefers, to talk about the challenges of getting conservative women elected to Parliament.  As the Co-Chair of Women2Win, a campaign group she co-founded with former Prime Minister Theresa May, Anne has been on the front lines of the fight to get more women elected on behalf of the Conservative Party. Anne and I explore what Women2Win does to help women candidates, what she’s learned from a lifetime in Parliament, and the pride she feels for her family’s role in achieving women’s suffrage in the UK. She'll also share her thoughts on imposter syndrome as a Baroness and why women don't talk about their health enough. So grab your popcorn because we're about to dive into a real-deal conversation about empowering women in politics!

About Baroness Jenkin:
“Gets stuff done, rattles cages, and wings it much of the time” as her bio puts it,  Anne Jenkin is a powerhouse in UK politics. A Member of the UK’s House of Lords, and Great-granddaughter of Sir Willoughby Dickinson, who introduced the 1907 Women’s Enfranchisement Bill in the House of Commons, she is part of a political dynasty that covers all three of the UK’s major political parties. After a career working as a Conservative parliamentary researcher, Anne co-founded Women2Win with former Prime Minister Theresa May in 2005 and currently serves as the organisation's Co-Chair. In 2011, she was made a Life Peer by David Cameron and has continued to work tirelessly to promote women in public life. She is also a vocal campaigner for reducing waste in all its forms and promoting sustainable development, at home and abroad.
