Episode 31 – Electoral realignment in the UK, with Rob Ford

Rob Ford (Professor of Political Science at the University of Manchester) makes his dramatic return to the podcast to talk to us about the surreal European elections in the UK, possible realignment in the British party system, the Tory leadership elections and the lasting damage that the Brexit process has inflicted on the legitimacy of representative democracy in the UK.
