How I'd Fix...Election Campaigns

The general election campaign is in full swing, but not everything's going smoothly for the main parties. So what makes a blockbuster election campaign and how do we make them better? Ed and Becca have found someone with shed loads of successful experience: author and former political advisor Cleo Watson. Having worked on Obama's 2012 re-election, Vote Leave in 2016 and Boris Johnson's 2019 victory, she knows her way around a campaign and has some strong ideas on how to change things. Is it time to introduce mandatory voting? Should we shake up campaign finance rules? Or should we just be better at vetting those who lead us... ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy [https://acast.com/privacy] for more information.

How I'd Fix...Knife Crime

On this week's episode, Ed and Becca discuss a more serious topic and the terrifying rise of knife crime in the UK. They are joined by activist and campaigner Faron Paul, who is on a one man mission to make Britain's streets safer. He runs a nationwide knife amnesty, offering vouchers in return for weapons being handed to him. During his interview he asks: Are prison sentences tough enough?
