It's been a depressing week at C&D headquarters. We review the general election: What happened? Why? Is Britain right wing now?

We also discuss what politics looks like outside of election season, and hear from Aline Muylaert of CitizenLab about how they're trying to build citizen engagement in the democratic process. Find out more about Aline's work at www.citizenlab.co .

In an effort to lift everyone's spirits Rowan deploys a long and detailed football analogy for youth politics.
