Day Five, Lancing & Barnet

Beth and the boss.

Our taxi driver was switching from Green to Labour, it was a great conversation I would have loved to record - but no dice. We put our trust in the local teams to select who we speak to on visits, they're always good but I craved footage with the authenticity of spontaneity at times.

The speech was in a little village hall. Afterwards I listened in, editing, as Beth Rigby interviewed the boss. A few weeks prior she did her interview prep whilst sat next to me. I summarily passed her questions onto the press team for secret advance sight...

We then went back to London where Keir spoke with more switchers, fundamental to our strategy, including the outgoing head of the Board of Deputies of British Jews. The conversation was quite moving and the video was given to the local candidate and shared in WhatsApp groups with some key people from the Jewish community.
