UnPacked shorts – Liberals are over-represented in politics, just look at the political compass

Description

Listen to this UnPacked Short and find out. Peter Franklin, Charlotte Pickles and Sally Chatterton discuss how, based on this categorisation, mainstream political parties don’t seem to represent the masses.
