To mark the 100th episode of 'Rugby Reloaded' we have a special interview with David Hinchliffe, formerLabour MP for Wakefield from 1987 to 2005, one of the founders of the All Party Parliamentary Rugby League Group, and author of Rugby’s Class War . We talked about his time in parliament, his attempt to outlaw rugby union discrimination against league, and his thoughts on rugby league today and its 'deference' problem.

Parliamentary debates on David’s Sports Discrimination Bill can found here., and I’d also highly recommend his book on the 1968 ‘Watersplash’ Challenge Cup Final, which can be obtained from Scratching Shed Publishing.
