Our colleagues over at Central Bylines have created a great, and continuing, series of articles explaining some of the basics of polititcs in the UK.
Whether you're new to politics or just looking for a straightforward refresher, these articles will help you navigate the world of politics with confidence and clarity.
Politics in the UK today is a minefield of competing ideas, policies, information, misinformation and downright lies. It shapes the way the country makes decisions and determines our future. We can often feel powerless in the face of the well-funded party machines and if we don't understand how our politics works we may well be missing opportunities to shape the future for ourselves and our children.
This series of articles, written by Jayson Winters breaks down complex political concepts, explains key terms, and explores how governments work, all while using easy-to-follow language.
