Ìý Ordinary People & Politics Friday 14 June 2002 Ìý
One of the hardest things for any government to face is not an attack from the opposition but from someone outside the professional world of politics.

Tony Blair came in for this kind of treatment in Birmingham last year. On the first day of the election campaign, Sharron Storer stormed up to the Prime Minister and attacked him over the lack of a bed for her partner Keith.
So what does it take to challenge the most important person in the country? And is it harder for politicians to counter an attack from a so-called ordinary woman? Martha talks to Melissa Kite, political correspondent for The Times, and by Sharron Storer herself.
