As someone who doesn’t do football but does love history. Anyone else think Harry Kane looks like your idea of an English knight at Agincourt? I will accept other armoured conflicts.
Genuine question to @AlistairCarns, what is the difference between cuts and running the state 10% better? If there is waste then cut the waste... so cuts to some useless expenditure. It's cuts. You're saying the state is spending more than it needs to. So needs cutting.
The country is tired of being told it's borrow, tax or cut. It's just not true...
If we can run the state 10% better, we free up the money for what the country actually needs.
That's the ground Labour should be fighting on.
@ajcdeane …you have a problem with Slytherin? By far the best common room. Overwritten in the books ok, but Scorpius is just my favourite character in the canon.
I have revered @Miss_Snuffy from Day Zero of her being anon then Tory Conference then Michaela School becoming a beacon of delivering real change… so as a podcast addict this is AWESOME 🥰
Yep and you can get one on Amazon right now. They are kinda noisy so get some ear plugs in the same order (if you don’t have in my case the advantage of being pretty deaf already). Seriously, chill out people 🫶
Highly recommend @LukeTryl ‘s @opinionbriefpod . Burnham Bounce is clearly there but I have the same feeling I had before Keir that something wasn’t quite right. Leading only marginally. Anything Burnham does in his first days and weeks could crack the thin ice under his ratings.
“It is easy for those who quite liked Keir Starmer to write his failures off to an ungovernable public. I think that is a cop out.”
“Politicians have failed to demonstrate that they can bring about the change that the country needs.”
@LukeTryl explains how recent Prime Ministers have been the architects of their own destruction, and that the British public should not be blamed for the turnover in No. 10.

Really is. @ClaireCoutinho is a proper star at the Despatch Box. I could wish for a Badenoch, Coutinho, Patel, Lam top 4 but... I do just have a thing for Chris Philp so 🤷♂️
@andrew_lilico It's not a preference - that is utter fuckwittery. Sexuality is utterly primal even if we still don't know quite why. The issue with conversation therapy is it preys on people who grew up socialised to believe there's something wrong with them when there just isn't.
@RhonddaBryant Or maybe just honesty? You don’t get to be this despised as a PM by accident (well, maybe in this case you do) but no it deserves calling out in the national interest -so maybe his successor has a proper hard think about his Cabinet choices.
