EMQs: Paddleboards, power stances and private schools
Gimmicks and gaffes have been a feature of the first week of the election campaign. Inspired by Ed Davey’s attempt to raise awareness of river pollution by falling off a paddleboard – multiple times – George and Ed reflect on the nation’s (and their own) cringiest political stunts. And George finally reveals all – how did he end up doing the ultimate Tory power stance? It’s not just PR moves though, policy debate is in full swing. Ed and George disagree on Labour’s planned tax on private school fees and mull the consequences the election could have for the markets. Plus, Ed offers his top tips to Michael Gove, amid rumours he might be about to trade in his spot in the cabinet for a place on the Strictly dance floor… Remember to send us your questions to questions@politicalcurrency.co.uk We just can't get enough of the election, so we're launching an extra HOT TAKE every Tuesday during the election.
