S2 Ep3: There's Nothing Tacti-Cool About Tactical Voting – or is there?

Jun 28th, 2024 7:15 PM

The election is just a few days away, and here at The Polling Station we are gripped by election fever. Marie has been in Scotland, finding out all about what the Scots think (spoiler: lots of quite contradictory things) while Joe explains what the polls say about Scotland (spoiler: almost nothing). Then we're talking about tactical voting. Does it make a difference? Do voters who say they're going to tactically vote actually vote tactically? And what on earth is a GROT?

S2 Ep2: "I Pipy the Fool Who Doesn't Understand Mr. P!"

Jun 21st, 2024 6:44 PM

Order, order! The Polling Station is in session once again (if that doesn't mix too many political metaphors). Joe and Marie are back with another look at the 2024 General Election, answering all the big questions: how do you pronounce "polling"? Did Marie enjoy her trip on the battle bus? Why are MRP polls like Lego? Is it ethical to bet in markets where you know the outcome? And is Count Binface going to save Rishi Sunak from total humiliation in Richmond?
