Here in the UK we go to the polls for a general election on Thursday December 12th 2019 so I thought that after the moderate (even limited) success of my layman's guide to the European election, I could do another one. This time I thought it would be more interesting to bring Isla in so that we could share the responsibility of telling you about what's going on and how to get involved and I hope that if nothing else, our excitement over the prospect of election night itself ends up coming through. We forgot to mention some things like tactical voting, the process of voting against a candidate you disapprove of rather than voting for a candidate you favour, though the recording is already about half an hour long so forgive us this horrendous error. If we short changed you of some good information in any other way on this free and amature podcast, let me know so I can put it right next time.

We enjoyed recording this so I hope you enjoy listening to it just as much. We want to do one after the election detailing all the candidates and parties who make us laugh or wonder what on earth is going on.
