Will you be judged for who you vote for?
鈥nd how much does it matter if we don鈥檛 agree?
It is two days until we go to the polls in what we are often told is a 鈥榙ivided Britain鈥�. But, exactly how we are divided has changed.
50 years ago our social class was the biggest indicator of party loyalty, whereas nowadays our age is more likely to determine who gets our vote. That鈥檚 according to pollster Sir John Curtice, who came into the Beyond Today studio to tell us why voting trends have changed and how racist and homophobic the nation is in 2019.
We also speak to Tosin Adedayo, Jenna Davis and Julie Ogiehor from the political podcast Consensus, about being judged for political views and how they could teach politicians to behave better. We also hear from Shona Craven, columnist and community editor at The National, about the political campaign in Scotland.
