The Election Tricycle

Money in Politics: can candidates spend their way to success?

Listen on

Episode notes

This week's episode of The Election Tricycle comes in the wake of Super Tuesday. But that's not something we'll dwell on for too long, given that it only really confirmed what we already knew. Instead, we're talking about money in politics. Are the BJP still the anti-corruption party they once ran as? Is British politics stifled by its funding rules? And is there a growing trend towards smaller donors in the head-spinning world of American campaign financing? Rohan, Tom and Emily discuss.
