Description: Welcome to series 3 of The A Level Politics Show! We hope like the new jingles. In this episode, we focus on whether political parties adequately serve democracy. To do so, they must represent the public rather than their donors, they must hold government to account and provide meaningful routes for citizens to participate. I argue that political parties fall far short of performing these functions and, in doing so, do a disservice democracy.
