Two Lib Dem MPs and a Peer have made it into Politics Home’s Women in Westminster 100 for 2024.  The list is made up of prominent women in Parliament and political media.

Daisy Cooper, Layla Moran and Federal Campaigns and Elections Committee Chair Baroness Kath Pinnock are all mentioned.

Daisy Cooper “brings the single-,minded focus of a seasoned campaigner to the Liberal Democrats.” Her citation sets out her campaigning career prior to becoming an MP, working for organisations such as More United, Hacked Off and for human and LGBT rights internationally.

Layla’s personal experience of the terrifying and heartbreaking situation in Gaza is mentioned:

With members of her own family caught up in the war between Israel and Hamas, Moran has found herself at the forefront of public discussions about the conflict. It is not a subject she has shied away from, speaking with compassion, authenticity and depth of understanding about the complexities of the situation.

Kath Pinnock is praised for her work on the levelling up brief, particularly on rights for renters and fire safety:

…she has spoken on a vast number of issues that impact local communities across the country from better protection for renters to the long term funding of social care.

In 2023 she worked tirelessly to shape the Levelling Up and Regeneration Act as it made its way through the Lords, pressing for changes that would benefit local communities.

But it is perhaps on fire safety that Pinnock has made the most telling contributions. Pinnock has been one of the most consistent voices pushing for stronger regulation and protection for all leaseholders to be protected by the Government scheme.
