Overview
Outspoken Labour backbencher Clare Short talks to Steve Richards about her childhood memories of growing up in the poor areas of Birmingham and her time at Catholic school. Was the feisty politician always a bit of a rebel even as a child? And how did she interact with her teachers and fellow pupils? The Labour MP also reflects on her relationship with Catholicism, both as a teenager and today, and how it has formed her views on sex education and the existence of God. She also discusses the impact of the political household she grew up in and, looking back, wonders whether she has lived something of a Labour fairy-tale.
