Launch Event: Audit of Political Engagement 9, Part Two - The Media and Politics

Thursday 12 July

The media claim to play a critical role in our democracy, shining a bright light on those in power on behalf of the public. But in the context of that place in our democracy, what role and responsibilities, if any, do they have in relation to political engagement?

After a turbulent year for politics and the media the implications for public perceptions of politics and our democracy was explored in part two of our Audit of Political Engagement, launched on Thursday 12 July in Parliament.
