We’re joined by The Londoner’s Andrew Kersley to talk about his recent article, looking at the ways that misinformation in the form of viral content, is affecting how London, is governed. Andrew talks through his investigation into Fare Evasion on London’s public transport, and how myths of chaos and lawlessness, have been weaponised by political parties online, and have also resulted in greater police presence in tube stations and subsequently, more arrests of young people.
