Episode notes
Act I of the Makerfield By-Election.
In the proud working-class heartland of Makerfield, Labour’s world is crumbling. After a disastrous set of election results, Josh Simons quits, triggering a high-stakes by-election. Labour sends in big-name heavyweight Andy Burnham, but Reform UK has already hit the red-brick streets with a local plumber, his white van, and a growing army of volunteers.
Join Ray Addison on the ground as canvassing begins, Nigel Farage arrives, and the grassroots campaign catches fire. From Sunday morning door-knocking under beautiful blue skies to rain-soaked streets and late-night chats in Rob Kenyon’s van - this is the ultimate underdog story.
