UF Radio - April 2024: "Our London, Our Say"

This month’s show discusses the London Mayoral Elections on May 2nd. What does the Mayor do and why is it such an important role? What do you love about your capital city? What worries you about London? These are the key questions we discussed to spark an interesting conversation. We were feeling very proud of our London by the end of the chat, though we also agreed there are things that need to be taken seriously by the next Mayor. We lovingly put together a London themed song list.
