The News Agents

The News Agents awards of the year


Listen Later

2024 really has been a political year like no other - treating us to an indulgent helping of seismic elections, career comebacks and a gluttony of scandals.

So we thought we’d try and make some sense of it all with the inaugural News Agents awards of the year. With some help from LBC’s Natasha Clark and Aggie Chambre, Lewis adjudicates on the highlights and the lowlights, the heroes and the villains of the last twelve months - and a look ahead to what’s in store for us all in 2025.

We’ll be back on Christmas eve with the first of our ‘What If’ series, taking a deep dive into the sliding doors moments which have shaped our world. What if things had played out differently?
