Politicians are… weird. While it baffles us relentlessly – could it be a good thing? Sunak forgetting how to use a card machine, Rees-Mogg lounging in the commons and Truss, Truss-ing. The list goes on and on and on. So why are politicians the way they are? Dr. James Weinberg is a political academic at the University of Sheffield and author of Who Enters Politics And Why. He joins Marie Le Conte in The Bunker.
- “We’ve got this popular human fascination with politicians.” – James Weinberg.

- “If we can change our political environment, I think our politicians have the drivers to do a good job.” – James Weinberg
