On this week's New Statesman podcast, Anoosh Chakelian is joined by Patrick Maguire and Eleni Courea to talk about Change UK (aka The Independent Group) who have launched their slate of candidates ahead of the European elections. Then, for something a bit different, Helen Lewis joins Anoosh to discuss Fleabag and the media's outrage cycle.
