From Iron Maiden to the Iron Lady: Japan's first female prime minister

???? Listen to Sky News Daily on your podcast app ???? A former television presenter and heavy metal drummer has become the first woman to be elected prime minister of Japan.

Sanae Takaichi is known for her right-wing views and cites Margaret Thatcher as an inspiration. But it's not just her political beliefs that are controversial - Ms Takaichi has a love of hard rock and motorbikes, despite her deeply conservative background.

Why has it taken so long for Japan to elect a female PM? And what challenges does she face domestically, as well as on the world stage? Niall is joined by Dr Kristin Surak, associate professor of political sociology at the London School of Economics and a leading expert on Japanese politics. Producers: Natalie Ktena & Tom Gillespie Editor: Mike Bovill.
