St Andrews' local Liberal Youth Scotland branch and the university Feminist Society held an exciting discussion on Wednesday evening.

There was a great turnout, and the star speaker was Liberal Democrat campaigner and journalist Christine Jardine. The purpose of the event was to show that women have a vital role to play in our democracy and that it is time for real equality, in our councils, in the Scottish Parliament, and at Westminster. 

Wednesday's event comes as Willie Rennie launched a radical new plan for gender equality in the Scottish Liberal Democrats.
