SNP’s Mhari Black hits out at Commons ‘private members club’

Sky News published this video item, entitled “SNP’s Mhari Black hits out at Commons ‘private members club'” – below is their description.

SNP MP Mhairi Black says Westminster is often steeped in misogyny and the Commons is like a ‘private members club’.

She also told Sophy Ridge she did not think that the ongoing feud in the SNP will be damaging, adding the real issue is the women that made the initial complaints (about Alex Salmond – which he was found not guilty of) not feeling able to speak out, adding she does not believe it is easier for women to come forward with allegations of abuse.
