Matters of Interest: Denmark’s Migration Management & Britain’s Voting Rights

In this mid-week Matters of Interest, Richard discusses how the Danish Social Democrats, a party once confronted with losing its historic working-class base, re-oriented itself to maintain their traditional supporters. What lessons could Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour Party learn from its Scandi counterparts? And Lee reflects on Reform UK’s policy announcement, after the Gorton & Denton by-election, that only British citizens should be able to vote in UK Parliamentary elections. Is this reaction to by-election defeat the right one?
