The Open Secret: Part Three – Looking for Answers

  • Summary

  • As yet more accusations of bullying and harassment shake Westminster – has such behaviour become normalised in parliament, and can things change for the better?

    On the final of this three-part series, Sky's political correspondent Liz Bates speaks to a former Chief Whip about their role in protecting MPs and parties' reputations. And, a former Conservative minister on why she believes things got worse under Boris Johnson's leadership.

    Plus, as the Speaker Lindsay Hoyle calls for 'radical action', can his Speakers’ Conference bring about the changes needed to make Westminster safer and restore public trust in politicians?
