In making that manifesto commitment to bring the leasehold system to an end, we were not promising to immediately abolish leasehold outright. Anyone with even the most rudimentary knowledge of leasehold knows that outright and immediate abolition of circa five million English and Welsh leases is almost certainly impossible.

The filmmakers followed D.O.A. frontman Joe Keithley during his 2022 reelection campaign to document the amount of work and commitment that goes into running for public office.

There are some issues where if a Green isn't in the chamber asking a question, that question won't be asked.
