A Backbench Interview Series: Steve Baker

Steve Baker, former Conservative MP for Wycombe and former Minister of State at the Northern Ireland Office, is interviewed in the final installment of our series by co-host Josh Cheshire. Baker discusses the ways parliament has changed since he was first elected (interesting for our young demographic of listeners!), and changing party dynamics in the Commons, and details the challenges associated with governing and leadership in the long term. Baker also provides depth on the Brexit referendum and process, giving his take on one of the most significant political issues of our time.
