Podcast of Ideas: elections in the UK and France
The team discuss the 'Brexit election' and the collapse of the traditional parties in France.
In the first of a series of podcasts in the run-up to June’s general election in the UK, Adam Rawcliffe introduces a discussion with Claire Fox, Alastair Donald and Geoff Kidder.
What do the team think about the decision to call an election? What are the key debates in Election 2017? Are traditional party political considerations relevant at the moment? Indeed, as suggested by the first round of voting in the French presidential election, are the old parties in terminal decline?
