Series 2, Episode 6 - Politics

Britain's grumpiest talking heads share their woes about politics. Politicians sometimes feel like a waste of oxygen: high on promise, low on delivery.

Further details

Here at grumpy HQ our mission is to lift the lid on some of the subjects that make the grumpily disposed spitting mad.. and we're guessing that for most of us the world of politics is a source of some considerable irritation. Politicians sometimes feel like a waste of food, high on promise, low on delivery, and if they're not spinning, or being economical with the truth, they're up to some hanky panky with their diary secretary. This romp through some of the juiciest scandals and silliest examples of spin will at least serve as a reminder that politicians are extremely human.
