Politics Without The Boring Bits

Why So Many MPs Are Calling It Quits

This Saturday we're bringing you an extra episode from another Times podcast - <a href="https://www.thetimes.co.uk/podcasts/stories-of-our-times" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Stories of Our Times</a> - one remarkable story, told in depth, each day. With an election just around the corner, politicians are quitting Westminster in their droves, many of them under 40. Is the job broken – or are they just jumping before they're pushed? We meet the leavers and reluctant remainers. Luke Jones speaks to The Sunday Times columnist Charlotte Ivers. Clips: Times Radio, ITV News, Global. Hosted on Acast.
