House of Lords Podcast: the Speakers

The House of Lords Podcast is back for a new season. This month we hear from Parliament’s two Speakers: Lord Speaker, Lord McFall of Alcluith, and Speaker of the House of Commons, Sir Lindsay Hoyle. In this episode, the Speakers discuss how their similar backgrounds have forged a new working relationship between the two speakers, the importance of engaging with the whole country and the surprisingly international aspects of their roles. The Speakers also discuss the challenges of the last two years and preparing for the future. Read a transcript: https://www.parliament.uk/business/lo...
