'Anti-establishment' Politics

World Have Your Say

Available for over a year

Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Bernie Sanders are celebrating an early victory in the the long race to November's presidential election in the US. But why is their stance against 'mainstream politics' appealing to voters? And what exactly makes self-proclaimed 'maverick' politicians so popular in some countries around the globe? And, as football fans in the UK and in Germany take a stand against high ticket prices, we ask how much people should pay to watch elite football.
