Welcome to Season 2 of the Convince Me Podcast! We are in our brand new studio and have switched up the format of our episodes a little bit to make sure we are bringing you the best content that we can. In this episode, we look into the heavily debated topic of immigration and break it down into six sections: hotels, NHS, benefits, crime, legal vs illegal migration and party policies. We look at some common misconceptions, debunk some myths and look at what can and can't be said about immigration in this country. In Front Page Face Off, we try out a new platform called Ground News and discuss story blindspots on the left and the right, in other words, what are left/right leaning news papers not talking about? This week's blindspot on the left is all about Farage calling to ban second home owners from buying new-builds in tourist locations to protect local communities. The blindspot on the right is about a Chinese company investing in Scottish renewable energy. In the Rant Room, Nige takes on Zia Yusuf (again....) and talks about his most recent appearance on BBC's Question Time.
