Welcome to Not Enough Champagne: A podcast about people, politics and pragmatism.

In our first three episodes we are taking a step back and looking at the wider issues behind the EU Referendum debate.

In this first episode we discuss the role of referendums in Britain today. Are they just a tactical device used by politicians? Should we have citizen-initiated referendums, as countries like Switzerland do? And what is the best way to engage people in the policy making process?

We'd love to have some feedback so please leave us your comments and share our podcast on Facebook and Twitter.
