Former leader of ~Oxford City Council~ and now MP for Milton Keynes South, Dr Phyllis Starkey, tells Jamie Hailstone about her life at Westminster as an ‘influence'

When I arrived to meet Milton Keynes South MP, Dr Phyllis Starkey, at her Westminster office, she had just survived an interrogation on Iranian television. But the former leader of Oxford City Council and former chair of the ~Local Government Information Unit~ (LGIU) was not being quizzed on local government. It was in her other capacity as former chair of the British-Iranian All-Party Parliamentary Group.
