On 7 March 1996, ahead of that year's International Women's Day, House of Commons Speaker Betty Boothroyd spoke to ITN's Dermot Murnaghan about her trailblazing role in Parliament and the progress made - and yet to be made - in achieving equality between the sexes in British political life. When Murnaghan moved to wrap up the interview, Boothroyd insisted on drawing attention to the struggles and successes of ordinary women across the country who were not involved in political life, and who Boothroyd called the UK's unsung heroines . • #BettyBoothroyd #UKPolitics #InternationalWomensDay #IWD #IWD2024 • To license the footage featured in this clip, follow the link below: • https://www.gettyimages.co.uk/videos/... • To search the ITN Archive collection on Getty Images, follow the link below: • https://www.gettyimages.co.uk/footage... • 🎥 Subscribe to our YouTube channel (tap the bell icon and stay up to date with all the latest ITN Archive videos!) - / @itnarchive • 🎥 Follow us on Twitter - / itnarchive • 🎥 Like us on Facebook - / itnarchiveitnp • 🎥 Check out our TikTok - / itnarchive1955
