Lobbying in the age of Brexit

Tales from the Lobby

Available for over a year

When Frank Field entered Parliament in 1979, he knew exactly whom to lobby - Margaret Thatcher, the most powerful person in the land. But ever since the referendum of 2016, ministers and prime ministers have come and gone. The world of politics - and lobbying - has entered a period of instability and flux. In this final episode we hear from Jasmine Whitbread of London First and Mark Shorrock of Swansea Bay Tidal Lagoon about lobbying in the age of Brexit. And two lobbyists - Iain Anderson and Alex Deane - explain what they think will happen next. The presenter is Michael Crick, the producer Miles Warde
