Craft Politics

Craft Politics

Craft Politics is a cross-border political podcast, which sounds grander than it is. Mostly it's two friends — Joseph Lavoie, a Canadian public affairs strategist who used to work in a Prime Minister's Office, and Andrew Percy, a former UK Conservative MP — asking the experts who'd know the answer to one sharp political question. Canadian listeners get the UK context they're missing. British listeners get a Canadian lens on their own politics. Everyone comes away slightly better informed.
