You really should be keeping an EXTREMELY close eye on debates/interviews concerning the election. They are full of power struggles and facework.
Look at this, for example:

Or the horribly cringey video that's going round Facebook of the PM defending her decision not to appear on a TV debate.
Just go on Facebook, look at the Channel 4 news page or BBC politics. There's TONS of short videos that you could watch and memorise for wider reading either for 'Power - Politics' or 'Situation - Face/Politeness'
You will need to remember the names of participants and what the video is about, however, as you will need to quote this in the exam.
