What is it like to grow up with a government minister for a Dad? Eliza speaks to Patrick and Jimmy about the changing nature of conservatism, the power of social mobility, and talking Brexit at the dinner table. The Rt Hon Sir Patrick McLoughlin started his career as a coal miner, before turning his hand to politics. Serving in a variety of Ministerial positions, he was Chairman of the Conservative Party until 2018, when he was appointed Chairman of Visit Britain and granted a life peerage. His son Jimmy worked in public relations, before joining his Dad in Whitehall as Prime Minister Theresa May’s Special Advisor on Business Relations. He is now a fellow-podcaster and host of Jimmy’s Jobs of the Future.
