This week, we turn to the question of democracy and the local elections. With an unrepresentative system, and efforts to suppress voter turnout, our system is looking less and less democratic. 



This week, we are joined by Abbie Jones from Make Votes Manchester Manchester, and Tom Brake, Director of Unlock Democracy, to look into these problems, and what can be done to solve them. 



Be sure to check out Abbie at @MVM_Manchester, and Tom at @thomasbrake and @UnlockDemocracy, along with their new report into local government:
