麻豆社

A trained French teacher, she opted for journalism and started to volunteer on hospital radio. A job on The Irish Post followed, then she was selected for a 麻豆社 local radio trainee scheme. After training and two years at Radio Solent, Carolyn became a reporter on the local radio desk for the 麻豆社 at Westminster. She became a political correspondent in 1994, a position she held until 2006, when she became a full time presenter.

Her role on The Westminster Hour, she says, gives her the perfect opportunity to maintain her contacts at Westminster and give a voice to the backbencher, analysing in depth the subjects that perhaps don鈥檛 get a hearing on other programmes.

鈥淚t鈥檚 the ideal programme for getting behind the news and discovering the issues that are concerning politicians. Our regular MP panel provides that forum and we make full use of a wealth of expert commentators and academics who are scrutinising the political scene to examine contemporary and historical topics in greater depth."

In July 2013 Carolyn received an honorary degree from the University of Kent in recognition of her contribution to broadcast journalism.
