We want to kick-start a revolution of participation in British politics by changing the way it is perceived by the public. Catch21 seeks to achieve this by producing shows all over the UK, which will attract young people - those who are seen as the least likely to be interested in the traditional style of politics - by including well-known public faces.

New Shows

Catch 21, the UK's first internet television channel run by young people for young people, is launching three, brand new internet television shows. These new shows will enable young people to access, gain knowledge and interact with news and current affairs, making www.catch21.co.uk the place to go for the latest political news.

 

 

 

A series of interviews with players in the world of politics: MP’s, activists, journalists and other experts.  Viewers will get the opportunity to gain a greater understanding about a particular issue that affects young people from authorities in that field.

 

 

 

Catch21’s flagship news programme where viewers will get the opportunity to learn about the latest news stories from young people’s perspective and hear other young people’s opinions on the issues. 

 

 

 

 An informal discussion show where young people chat about the recent news and current affairs topics at Catch21 HQ. Young people will get a chance to watch a discussion show that is directly targeted at them.

   

Comment here or on our facebook http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=6538756243  if you have any suggestions for topics we should discuss or if you want to get involved with presenting or appearing on our new shows.

I tried to watch this video and it stopped just after the question about financial literacy for youth. How do I access a complete copy of this interview with Christopher Houghton Budd? I am very interested in what he has to say about these topics.
