Consumer news and issues with Winifred Robinson.

Presented by Winifred Robinson.

What puts you off getting involved in politics?

The Prime Minister has set up a special Speaker's Conference to look at ways of better representing women, ethnic minorities and the disabled in Parliament.

It wants to know your views. You and Yours will be passing on your comments to those running the debate.

These are held only very rarely and can be hugely influential - it was a Speaker's Conference that recommended women get the vote back in 1918.

With Anne Begg, Labour MP for Aberdeen South, Dr Sarah Childs, senior lecturer in politics at Bristol University and Professor Paul Whiteley of the University of Essex.
