On this week's show we’re looking at the release of the Tech Talent Charter report. In short, if you’re a woman in tech, everything is still crap. We’ll also be looking at Nicky Morgan’s 5 principles to make tech work for everyone. Principle 1, is probably - “there’s no such thing as a principle worth sticking to”, and Principle 2 is, “let’s all eat the poor”.
