Pompey Politics Podcast: Want a Slice of the Pie?

Pompey’s favourite party political podcast returns with hosts Ian ‘Tiny’ Morris and Simon Sansbury. In this week’s episode, Ian and Simon are joined by David Simpson to talk about the concept of participatory budgets, how do they work? What sorts of things are funded by them? What benefits do they bring to communities in the municipalities they’re used?

Choose your slice of the pie

We welcome David Simpson to talk about the concept of letting voters say what they want a portion of council funds spent on.
