This week I have been delighted to speak with The Rt Hon Nigel Evans, a distinguished politician with a career spanning over three decades. Nigel served as the Member of Parliament for Ribble Valley in Lancashire from 1992 until just last week.

His extensive political career included Shadow Secretary of State for Wales, frontbench spokesman, member of various select committees, but he is probably best known as Deputy Speaker of the House of Commons.

Whilst the full impact of the election results is still fresh in everyone’s thoughts, Nigel offers advice for the newbies at Westminster, whilst reflecting on the value of experience in politics.
