The Political Party

Show 359. Thangam Debbonaire

Thangam Debbonaire

Thangam is one of the brightest stars of the Labour movement. As Shadow Culture Secretary she was all set to command the brief in government.

But things didn't go to plan. On 4 July, Thangam lost Bristol Central to the Green Party.

A classically trained cellist. Thangam has a range of life experience.

She's one of the most charismatic and engaging politicians in the country and her reflections on her career so far are thoughtful and hopeful.
