Rock & Roll Politics with Steve Richards

What Makes a Bully?


Listen Later

What is a bully? Dominic Raab has been officially condemned as one, by the inquiry into his conduct in Parliament. But what about Margaret Thatcher, who reduced some colleagues to tears? Was Gordon Brown a 'bully' or simply "demanding" and "emotional?"

In this era of deep crises, too many imprecise terms are defining British politics.

Many of you will disagree, and I look forward to our debate... don't forget, email [email protected] with your questions!
