Silent discos and kickabouts: Can MPs catch a break?

Whilst much of the country is enjoying a long Easter weekend, it’s far harder for MPs to switch off. And when they do, they might just end up getting lampooned for it. This week Keir Starmer was ridiculed for his 5-a-side prowess, while Labour MP for Walthamstow Stella Creasy faced criticism for posting a clip of herself dancing at a silent disco. In the midst of the US Iran war and a deepening cost of living crisis, Helen and Cleo discuss why it’s so hard for MPs to catch a break and why it’s always a good idea to think before you post on social media.Executive Producers: Olivia Foster and Carrie RoseProducer: Sam DurhamFind the best clips from the podcast and more from Helen and Cleo on the show's Instagram page here.Email your questions to Helen and Cleo on [email protected] podcast is part of The Independent Podcast Network and is produced in association with Next Chapter Studios.
