  • Resumen

  • With the election just days away, and minor parties pushing through major political change over the last two decades, now seems like the perfect time to explore Britains minor party scene. In this short podcast series we are talking to four minor party leaders from across the board, and from parties new and old. We'll be asking them what they are actually hoping to achieve during this election, and what their policy would look like if they went from minor to major.


    This is Small Parties Big Ideas.

    William Clouston - Leader of the Social Democratic Party (SDP)
    Jul 3 2024

    On today episode we spoke to William Clouston the leader of the Social Democratic Party or SDP.


    The SDP that William leads came to being in 1990 and traces its origins back to the Social Democratic Party formed in 1981 by a group of Labour MPs - Roy Jenkins, David Owen, Bill Rodgers and Shirley Williams. A decade after its arrival the SDP merged with the The Liberal Party, becoming the Liberal Democrats. However this current version of the SDP was reborn shortly afterward by a group who wanted to continue with the SDP's original values and maintain its long standing support.


    In this episode we spoke to William about where he, and the SDP, stand on the big economic and social questions surrounding this election, including on how they would try to reinvigorate British industry, as well as how best to tackle immigration.
