Nus Ghani speaks during a debate on International Women's Day 2021

Nus Ghani, MP for Wealden, spoke in the House of Commons during its debate to celebrate International Women's Day 2021. Nus said that the mood of the House has been dictated by the actions of men and not by the achievements of women.
