Coming Soon: Historic UK General Elections
Over the coming weeks Democracy Volunteers and the Observations Podcast will be guiding you through some of the most historic general elections in the UK. From the 1832 election which brought in the first seeds of parliamentary reform, the 1906 Liberal landslide, the Coupon Election of 1918 up to the 1997 Labour win and the 2010 election which delivered the first coalition since the war, our team will introduce leading experts on the elections.
We will be joined by: Dr. Luke Blaxill, Professor of Modern British History at Oxford University; Dr. Robert Saunders, Reader in Modern British History at Queen Mary University of London; Dr. David Redvaldsen, Associate Professor at the University of Agder; Dr. Rosie Campbell, Professor of Politics at King's College London; Professor Sir John Curtice of the University of Strathclyde; Dr. Tim Bale, Professor of Politics at Queen Mary University of London; and Andrew Sparrow, Political Correspondent for The Guardian.
