Give us what we want, or else! It’s how small children approach Halloween, and increasingly how everyone else approaches politics - with menace, ultimatums and threats.

Comedian Matt Forde convenes a special Halloween Focus Group in front of a live theatre audience and asks if politics is now just one long game of Trick-or-Treat.

Joining him to make idle threats and scare the locals are The Spectator’s Isabel Hardman, Malawian-born stand-up Daliso Chaponda and MP Jess Phillips. Together they work out who’s knocking, what they’re after, and whether it’s ever wise to hide behind the sofa and pretend you’re not in.
