Unleash the bar charts! Tactical voting and the next general election

Tactical voting took centre stage in the latest episode of Never Mind The Bar Charts as I discussed the thought-provoking pamphlet Breaching the Blue Wall: could tactical voting help England's 'progressive' parties defeat the Conservatives? with one of its authors, Dr. Alan Wager.

We focus on politics in England, but much of what we discuss is also applicable more widely too.

Feedback very welcome, and do share this podcast with others who you think may enjoy it.
