In The Room: Sleepwalking into the weirdest government yet

02:27

On Thursday 7 May, 25,000 candidates will stand in the local elections as potential representatives of Labour, the Conservative Party, Reform, the Greens, or as political independents. This number, in Cleo Watson’s words, is totally unprecedented.

In this clip from the latest episode of In The Room, Cleo and Helen explain how thorny this kind of situation can be – from personal experience – and the potentially disastrous effects of ‘really quite unsuitable people’ ending up in rather important positions.

New episodes of In The Room drop every week. You can listen on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, or watch on YouTube.
