Not Enough Champagne

Come for the political analysis, stay for the bad jokes and wrong predictions. Not Enough Champagne is run by Steve Haynes, who in a previous life was a Parliamentary Candidate for the Liberal Democrats, and Cory Hazlehurst, a Labour activist who has written about politics for the New Statesman. We try to work out what the hell is going on with British Politics and take a step back to shed new light on issues most news outlets don't talk about.

In this episode, we discuss personal responsibility at the ballot box with newly-elected chair of Birmingham Fabians LJ Davies. Is voting a right or a privilege? Do voters have a duty to involve themselves in the issues of a campaign? Should voting be made compulsory? And is Steve so apathetic that he couldn't even be bothered to vote for himself?

This week on Not Enough Champagne, we talk budgets with special guest Brigid Jones. When will support for the austerity agenda wane?
