MP3•Αρχική οθόνη επεισοδίου

Underhand, "bullying", quid-pro-quo... are whips helping run the country, or turning politics into a game of political point-scoring?

Armando and Anoosh are joined by playwright James Graham and professor of politics Chris Hanretty to discuss the whipping operation in parliament - and whether blowing the whistle on whips' tactics will actually change anything for the better.

Guests

James Graham is the award-winning writer of political plays This House, Brexit: The Uncivil War and Labour of Love

Chris Hanretty is a professor at Royal Holloway University who studies pork barrel politics.
