December 14th is the 100th anniversary of the first time some women, an estimated eight million of them, were eligible to vote. It was also the first time that women were able to stand for election as a Member of Parliament. We鈥檒l be celebrating these milestones in a special programme broadcasting live from Parliament. Jane Garvey will be joined by a panel of current women MPs and by an invited audience of past MPs, Youth Parliamentarians, academics and campaigners for change. We鈥檒l be hearing why our vote matters, what impact women voters and women MPs have on policy that benefits women? How much has changed for MPs since the early days of Nancy Astor, and just when will we see a 50:50 Parliament?
