Personal Politics takes a more personal look at the political world through the voices of those at the heart of it. Presenter Ursula Savage interviews politicians, journalists, campaigners and others in the political sphere, asking what motivates people to get involved in politics, what it means to them, and why it matters.
Ursula is also occasionally joined by co-host Aoife Clements to discuss the political matters of the day and the impact these stories could have.
After all, the personal is political, and the political is personal too.

Today's guest is Aoife Clements, PhD student and founder of the 50:50 NI organisation which works to encourage more women to get involved in politics. We discussed everything from why we have so few women in political life, how to change that and why that is for the better, and what she thinks of gender quotas.
