Episode Details

“Small Boats Week” was a horrific failure. Why do the Tories keep getting it so horrendously wrong? Plus, are politicians playing up to the cameras to gain viral popularity? We unpack whether our politicians are more camera conscious ever as they chase online moments. We discuss with this week’s guest Ed Campbell from PoliticsJOE. 

• “The further we strip real human lives out of this, the more we avoid an actual human solution.” – Yasmeen Serhan
• “The problem is that Braverman does know how to throw red meat to Tory activists.” – Seth Thévoz
• “If you think about the younger Prime Ministers, they’re all gifts to cartoonists - and they all played that up.” – Seth Thévoz 
• “The problem with online content compared to a party political broadcast is that you’re competing against every other piece of online content.” – Ed Campbell
