  • Remainer guests touting 10 year old arguments is so boring

    Try and remember over half your listeners voted Leave - your most recent guest touting her book was boring. Republicans buy sneakers gents, don’t trash the podcast by being in your bubble now.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Don't Wake Up to Make Rich People Richer
Q: What's stopping you?
Redefining motivation and enjoying what you do is key to sustainable success.
Retiring at 65 Makes No Sense
Q: Do you think we'll see a lot of migration, retirement migration from people that don't have enough in their domestic?
Yes, there is already increasing migration as people seek better conditions and opportunities, counteracting the myth of declining migration.
Retiring at 65 Makes No Sense
Q: But what would you say is more of a risk? Someone having five, everyone having five children, or people just having one or less children?
Both scenarios present risks, but too many children could lead to overpopulation, while too few could result in a labor shortage and pension funding issues.
What Politicians Won't Tell You About the Economy
Q: What do you believe we need to improve and make long-term changes in the UK?
Supporting entrepreneurs is crucial, and there needs to be consistent long-term support for this through policies and strategies.
What Politicians Won't Tell You About the Economy
Q: Why is the default setting of politicians to mislead and lie?
They are inherently optimistic and need to get re-elected, leading to them saying things that may not have a basis in reality.
