SCS Episode 29. Setting Fire to the Institutions

SCS Episode 29. Setting Fire to the Institutions.

In this episode I give fair warning that if you don't like swearing, you should go elsewhere, because of the three departments under DCMS that I look into this week, I start with the Birmingham Organising Committee for the 2022 Commonwealth Games Limited, then go into the British Film Institute and let loose when it comes to the anti-British Library. The people running that are precisely the woodworm in the beams that need to be taken outside and set alight.

In the 'Solutions' segment I take on the question of how independent representatives would have no choice but to work together, and a bit of insight that some may not know in terms of the accountability of politicians in the current system (i.e. none).
