8: Local politics with Ash Cartman
<p>NOTE: THIS EPISODE WAS RECORDED BEFORE POLLING DAY</p> <p>Welcome back to another episode of the Open Agenda Podcast. </p> <p>With the local elections now over, we have a result where the Conservatives lost heavily despite making a few gains. Labour took control of three London boroughs, won the newly created Cumberland Council but elsewhere they made losses too. It's with the Liberal Democrats and the Greens where they made significant gains including Ed Davey's party ejecting Conservative control of a newly reshaped Somerset County Council.</p> <p>To discuss local issues we're joined by North Somerset Councillor Ash Cartman, who stood for the constituency at the 2019 General Election. Elections are due to take place in North Somerset next year but for now we spoke to Ash about protests against new proposals on Clevedon's seafront, local politics and everything Lib Dem. </p> <p>Our thanks to Ash for joining us on the podcast. You can follow Ash on Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/Ashley_Cartman" target="_blank">@Ashley_Cartman</a></p> <p>You can also connect with Will and Nat on Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/CallmeWill97" target="_blank">@CallmeWill97</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/natjsch_" target="_blank">@natjsch_</a></p>
