このコンテンツについて
Private members clubs once played a crucial role in British politics, even acting as the organising hubs of the Conservative and Liberal parties. For centuries, politicians of every shade have drunk, dined and gossiped together behind the closed doors of London clubs. But do they still? And do clubs still influence our politics? In this week's episode, Lee and Richard tackle that question and identify the one post-war prime minister who, it seems, has never been a member of any club.
In this episode, the following books are mentioned:
'Ten Years to save the West' by Liz Truss.
'Active and Passive Citizens' by Richard Tuck.
