It’s a rare opportunity to engage in games with elected Members of Parliament. This unique experience is now available on The Mirror’s latest show, Party Games, which debuted recently. In this show on The Mirror’s YouTube channel, I bring together well-known figures from various political backgrounds for an unconventional gathering.
The inaugural guest featured is Labour MP Dawn Butler from Brent East. The show involves spinning a wheel of fortune, determining the games to be played. Each game has its own charm, extracting amusing anecdotes, heartfelt moments, and even some political banter from the MPs. Games like “Would You Rather?” and “Never Have I Ever?” challenge the MPs with tough choices and revelations.
Other segments like the “Ask Me Anything” round and “Hug, Marry, Avoid” add spice to the interaction, forcing MPs to make quirky decisions. During one segment, Dawn Butler’s reaction to a scenario involving Nigel Farage, Lee Anderson, and Richard Tice sparked laughter.
Amid rising threats and hostility towards MPs, The Mirror’s Party Games aims to humanize these public figures and provide viewers with a glimpse beyond the formalities of Westminster. The show highlights some of the most memorable moments from each episode, offering a refreshing take on political personalities.
Dawn Butler shared insights into her political journey, expressing her aspirations to become the Mayor of London and reflecting on her historic achievements. She emphasized the importance of standing out as a Black woman in politics and recounted instances where she challenged conventional norms.
In one segment, she discussed her campaign to revitalize high streets by addressing the issue of excessive gambling establishments. Her vision for a brighter future for local communities resonated with the audience, showcasing her commitment to positive change.
For those interested in witnessing these engaging interactions, Party Games is now available for viewing on YouTube.
