Scientist and writer Danyl McLauchlan joins Kim to tackle life's big questions, ideas and thinkers. This week he delves into the drivers of voting behaviour.
Political scientists suggest there are three different types of vote: some of us vote based on identity; some of us vote retrospectively - we look at the last three years and ask if things have gone well. And some of us vote transactionally, i.e. anticipating that we might get a tax cut.
Danyl is the author of two novels and Tranquillity and Ruin, an essay collection.
