Summary
Samantha was only elected in 2024 but she's already making waves, especially with her 'Yes, Sex Please, We're British' campaign.
It's certainly ruffled feathers and we talk about what she wants to achieve with it, what the reaction has been and whether the Prime Minister supports it.
Plus, of course, a bit of Labour leadership stuff...

| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the political party. |
| 0:12.1 | Today's guest is Samantha Nibbler, the Labour MP behind the yes, sex please were British |
| 0:18.0 | campaign. |
| 0:19.1 | I must misquote that. |
| 0:20.0 | It's a play on words of the no sex please were British thing. |
| 0:22.4 | So we talk about that and the reaction it's had and the, um, |

| 1:08.4 | the campaign and what it may achieve because it strikes me that action, and we'll come on to this. There are various different |
