Job Details

TalkPolitics is a bi-partisan, cross-party think-tank and campaign group with an over-riding aim to tackle political apathy, and the root causes of it, particularly amongst young people. We believe that it is essential to Western ideals of representative democracy to:

  • Defend and extend free speech and get the vote out.
  • Drastically improve political awareness and education in the UK.
  • Tackle the bad image politics gets and make it accessible to all.

Job: Blog Writer
We are looking for someone with a demonstrated interest and talent in political writing – who’ll be available to write semi-frequent articles for our “Mythbusters” and “Politics Put Simply” blog sections. You can see examples of these articles here: https://talk-politics.com/blog/.
