Ali Goldsworthy, co-author of 'Poles Apart', which looks at political polarisation, talks to me about how and why people become tribal and polarised, how this impacts on our politics and what we can do about it.

Episode 8 - political polarisation: tribes & 'the other'

With more than twenty five years experience as a political activist on the Welsh left in various roles, including the leadership of Plaid Cymru and Member of the Senedd for the Rhondda, I am now seeking to contribute to political life with a podcast.

This new platform aims to give voice to those people and issues we don’t hear enough from or about in the mainstream media. Our politics needs a different conversation. I hope that this podcast will help with that.
