Uxbridge Over Troubled Water?

By-elections are rarely like buses, but this time three have arrived at once. The Conservatives lost Somerset and Frome and Selby, but held on to Boris Johnson’s old seat in Uxbridge… by a hair’s breadth.  

As parliament prepares to shut up for summer, the podcast team discuss a night that produced plenty of food for thought in government and the opposition - and not forgetting the by-election experts, the Lib Dems. 

Will Jennings, Professor of Political Science and Public Policy at the University of Southampton also joins us after a busy night of polling. 

With Alex Thomas, Giles Wilkes and Cath Haddon. 

Produced by Podmasters.
