Topics in our half hour chat ranged from building on green belt land, climate change and the cost of living to a private members bill he’s put forward in parliament on harassment of women in public places.  Since I recorded my interview, Greg's bill won government backing.

I also asked Greg Clark if he’d be standing again at the next election and what it was like to be in a cabinet meeting chaired by Boris Johnson.

But I started with why he wanted to go into politics.
