Let Max solve your problems

Politics Max
Max is waiting to hear from you!

'Politics Max' is the interactive strand, within the Politics Show, which deals directly with your own concerns and complaints.

Max has already solved a number of tricky problems - here are just three...

Fighting for Freddie's

Freddie Peters

A few hundred yards from the House of Commons is the Ethelred Estate.

Kids who live there have a problem moving around the borough - Lambeth - because of turf wars and gang violence.

Freddie's is slap bang in the middle of all this - it's a youth club run by a fabulously colourful character - Fred Peters - who started the club back in 1981 after the Brixton riots.

Lambeth Council, on who's land Freddie's sits, want a measure of control over public money they use to fund Youth Services... Max brought the two parties together to talk...

More politics please...

School pupil

A group of students from Henley contacted the Politics Show to ask why there is no Politics GCSE.

Max took them to meet the education minister and a senior Conservative and Lib Dem, who all promised to help.

Solving a tricky problem

Dorothea Johnson

This has been a longer-running problem... Dorothea Johnson contacted 'Politics Max' to try to resolve a problem with immigration law, which has haunted her for 20 years.

It would not have been a problem if she was a man, or a younger woman.

We were able to get a commitment from the Home Office, promising to change an immigration rule which had haunted her for 60 years.

Max is always looking for more of your political problems to solve.
