To submit your urgent questions to Michael and Maddie, visit spectator.com/quiteright.In this week’s Q&A: the Green party and the rise of new MP Hannah Spencer. Does a softer, more appealing political style mask something more radical beneath the surface – and is that precisely the secret of the party’s growing success?Also this week: whatever happened to levelling up? Once the defining mission of British politics, they debate whether regional inequality has quietly slipped down the agenda – and what that says about how both Labour and the Conservative party now see the country.And finally: what on earth has happened to the Liberal Democrats? With Ed Davey doubling down on stunts and spectacle, is there still a serious liberal project at the heart of the party – or has it become all performance and no substance?Produced by Oscar Edmondson.
