So, You Want to get into Politics? Adventures of a Would-Be Councillor is a fly on the wall podcast following the journey of Craig as he enters the world of party politics for the first time. And of his friend Rachel who by her own admission knows nothing about political parties and how the system works. Together they will share the experiences of campaigning for election to County Council, how the election process has worked and answer questions on what Craig’s stands for. This podcast promises to be informative, educational and fun. Join us on this warts and all journey into the mysterious world of this ‘would be’ councillor.
