MP for Hampstead and Kilburn Tulip Siddiq has two pre-school age children and relies on childcare during the week to do her job – and has to rush off to collect them from nursery straight after this interview.
Siddiq has been an MP for six years before which she was a councillor on Camden Council, where she was the cabinet member for culture and communities.
