This is a great question, and oftentimes I think candidates overestimate how much they need to use their degree as leverage in their applications so I wouldn't shoehorn a link in if it's proving difficult. That said, studying a non-law degree does make your application slightly more unique. The way I would go about it is thinking about what similarities there are between law and politics, and I think there's two ways. Commercial law and politics are of course intertwined, politics creates legislation, politics affects the economy, markets etc. You can use this to explain both your interest in law, but also to demonstrate your commercial and political awareness and how this would benefit you as a trainee.Alternatively, you could focus more on the hard skills gained. Politics teaches you research skills, written skills and how to construct an argument. These are all skills that you would use in law. I hope that helps!</blockquote>
