Does being a mother give you an edge in political life? @naomi_long and @adepstein1 discuss. #BBCNolan
The race to be new Prime Minister took a twist at the weekend. Andrea Leadsom was accused of using the fact that she is a mother and rival Theresa May isn't as a reason for getting the biggest job in British politics. The Times headlined its front-page lead story: "Being a mother gives me edge on May - Leadsom." Were her words taken a little out of context in the wider scope of things? The negative reaction to that Times article aside, does she have a relevant point regarding children?
