BU BÖLÜM HAKKINDA
In this episode of Off the Page, hosts Harry Morrison (Online Editor-in-Chief) and Alannah Driscoll (Podcast Producer) sit down with Michelle Chung (Online Deputy Editor). Together, they are joined with Rory Gow and Josh Rutty, two young Liberal Democrat Councillors from Devon and Cornwall.
This discussion examines what it truly means to enter politics at a young age. We discuss the spark that motivated them to run for election, their early political interests, and the support they’ve received from family, friends, and colleagues.
They share what it’s like to be underestimated as a young person in local government, the realities of campaigning, and the issues they believe matter most to young people today. We dive into why they chose the Liberal Democrats, whether the party truly listens to its younger members, and the things no one tells you before becoming a councillor.
From current projects they’re working on to their hopes for the future of Westcountry politics, this conversation offers a candid look at the challenges, motivations, and optimism driving the next generation of local leaders.
