Role:

  1. Produce the mini crossword once a week for publication on the weekend.
  2. Potential to publish crosswords more frequently and other games/puzzles.

  2. Creative with a passion for politics and crosswords.

  • We'd like you to make a 5x5 mini crossword and send it to us (feel free to just do it on paper and send a photo)
