Show 230 - *Esther McVey - Live*

WARNING: This podcast contains dangerous levels of inspiration!

Esther McVey had an unconventional start in life and has emerged as one of the most optimistic politicians in Britain. In this remarkably honest interview, Esther talks about how being a Barnardo's child shaped her and her politics. She also tells the incredible truth about the abuse she has received during her time in politics and talks movingly about Philip Davies and the support he has given her. It's an astonishing listen, Esther McVey is unlike any politician in the country.
