Political Ex-Heavyweights

January: a time for self-improvement... For some that means saving a few extra pounds, or for today's guests, ditching them. Will Quince, MP for Colchester, and Mark Essex, a strategy consultant at one of the Big Four accountancy firms, lost a whopping 16 stone between them in 2020. They join Christopher Hope (two stone down himself!) to talk about the politics of healthier living, the expense of ditching their fancy suits and whether supermarkets should play a bigger role in helping us make healthier choices.  Note: this podcast contains discussions of weight loss and dieting.
