In this episode, Jonathan speaks with Sam Boardman, who is the Green Party candidate for the Nunthorpe by-election and aged just 22. Sam talks about growing up locally, the moment he became politically engaged, and why hope matters in a time when so many people feel let down.

They explore issues facing the community — transport, housing, schools, green space, youth engagement — and reflect on the conversations Sam’s been having on the doorstep.

If you're curious about local politics or just want to hear from someone trying to bring a bit of humanity back into public life, this is a grounded, honest listen.
