Rock & Roll Politics with Steve Richards

What is the most underrated quality in a leader?

I am obsessed by the qualities required to be an effective leader, as members of the co-operative know. On reflecting on the death of Alex Salmond I discovered another underexplored quality in leadership – and I discuss the significance of Labour’s attempt to create an active state.

Plus brilliant questions from the Rock n Roll Politics co-operative, and important assembly notices.

Rock n Roll Politics is live at the Ropetackle in Shoreham on November 6th. Tickets here. 

…and is live at Kings Place on November 27th.. the last show of the year. Tickets here.
