About this episode
How much do parties spend on "big data", and how much do they still rely on old-fashioned leaflets through the door?
Matt finds out how they're planning to spend record amounts this election year, and why some past campaign expenses included 'pest control' and 'emergency chair removal'.
Plus: Columnists India Knight and James Marriott discuss Reform UK's woes, teenagers using social media, and supermarket orchids.
