UK general election

Finally, after much parliamentary jiggery-pokery, a date for a UK General Election has been set – December 12th to be precise, and right in time for Christmas. Will PM Boris Johnson and the Brexit Party claim the majority they say they have in hand? Can Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn overcome his own inner-party gremlins of 2019? Certainly, if the election were held today, the Tories would walk to victory, but a lot could happen in 6 weeks. 

Whatever your political persuasion as we approach the UK general election, soundbites and sloganeering can prove empty of real meaning. Giselle Green, head of the Constructive Voices project, suggests ways we might replace slogans with substance
