    15: Mhairi Black
    Mar 1 2025
    Mhairi Black gave an epic maiden speech in the House of Commons as a Member of Parliament for Paisley and Renfrewshire South in 2015, at just 20 years old. There she endured as an MP and became Deputy Leader of the Scottish National Party (SNP) in the House of Commons from 2022 to 2024. She made the decision to retire from political life in 2024, taking to the stage with her debut solo show, 'Politics Isn't for Me', to lift the lid on some of the more absurd and often toxic experiences that shaped her time in public service.

    At 30 year old, she reflects warmly and openly with Jules on her life so far, including her experiences of coming out, an ADHD diagnosis and finding queer community, revealing how "surviving" an often treacherous workplace led to a journey towards a happier, healthier life.
