Listen "And We're Off!"

Episode Synopsis

The election campaign is well and truly underway. Co-hosts Charlotte Henry and Emma Burnell analyse the first couple of days as the party leaders cover the length and breadth of the country... and others resign. 

They discuss Rishi Sunak's dreadful campaign launch (again), the leaders doing interviews on the Today programme and the prospect of six debates. And where are the Lib Dems? Charlotte also succeeds in getting Emma to talk about football. Again.
