Catch up with our ‘Taking the Pulse’ event

On 23 October we held a WonkComms event looking at the role of evidence and fact in policymaking in the run up to the election. Our panel members – Mark Henderson of the Wellcome Trust, Branwen Jeffreys of the BBC, and Nigel Edwards of the Nuffield Trust – gave their perspectives on how evidence is used (and misused) in election debate, using health policy as a case study.
