I forgot to add this is a great start of video and well laid out and interesting to watch. I don't understand why we are not taught this in school.

I think a lot more people be interested in politics and understanding how it works now the brexit become a talking point for all ages.

If it's possible I would definitely suggest a change in the title to this video as it doesn't entice you to watch.
Something like a quick start guide to how politics Unless you want another brexit fiasco to happen again
