politics.co.uk podcast: On the road with Boris

What did students at Croydon College make of Boris Johnson? What did Boris make of them?

politics.co.uk's Alex Stevenson caught up with the Conservatives' iconic candidate before accompanying him on a visit around Croydon College. Speaking to the man himself, as well as fellow Tory politicians and students, it soon becomes clear what is the real question for Boris: is his personality enough to overcome their reluctance to his policies?

WARNING: This podcast also features Boris Johnson cooking a crepe suzette, entering the lion's den of a hairdressing class and being accosted by an angry voter. Not for the faint-hearted...
