    Half way through and we’ve heard hardly a word from the guest, Anand Menon. What’s the point of him being there if he’s not upfronted?

  • Used to be good

    John McT comes across as a nasty chap. This podcast used to be great but Johns bitterness has spoiled it. I have been a loyal listener from day 1 but have now decided to leave, it's unbearable with John which is such a shame.

  • Be Careful Picking Your Guests!

    I have been listening to NAO since it started and have always really enjoyed it. Disappointed Steve Richards has left as a permanent contributor even though I didn’t always agree with him politically, I have always admired his fair and well thought through arguments. When all four of you were together it always worked well it had a great dynamic. However, on 15/7/2026, I found the guest John McTernan to be dismissive, patronising and too assertive it really affected the dynamic and vibe of the ... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

John Healey's first Budget - was that it?
Q: What are the best solutions or ideas that you've come up with at Arguably so far?
Eaton highlights Denmark's flexicurity model, stronger protection for people who lose work, support for data centres and local retention of some business rates, domestic North Sea production, and reforms to welfare and the tax trap around £100,000.
John Healey's first Budget - was that it?
Q: The criticisms have been a lot of small losers from the budget, not really any big winners, and not much of a sense of direction or tackling the big things. Is that fair or unfair?
Eaton says the budget was politically astute and produced a fairly neutral market reaction, but its modest tax and spending measures fell short of the government's ambitious rhetoric and may amount to a missed opportunity.
What is behind the unrest gripping France?
Q: And I wonder what your reaction, given your role as Shadow Foreign Secretary, is to those two quite strong signals from Marine Le Pen.
Tugendhat says Le Pen's past borrowing from Russian banks and ties to the Kremlin make her position on Ukraine unsurprising. He expects the European Union to face internal difficulty if she wins, and says the UK should focus on cooperation with northern European partners on defence and intelligence.
What is behind the unrest gripping France?
Q: Do you think that this problem of inequality, I suppose, and people who feel that they're locked out of the system, that they can't get ahead, that modern France is in a sense not set up for them to prosper, do you think that's really what's behind what we've seen on the streets, or do you think there's more complex things about this political moment in the approach of the presidential election in 2027?
Tugendhat identifies several overlapping causes: student protests, cost-of-living grievances associated with the Yellow Vests, discontent in isolated outer communities and activity by professional protesters on the hard left. He says these groups share a sense that the state does not work for them.
Is Reform’s £72m of crypto donations a game changer?
Q: How might tactical voting affect Reform's prospects with large donations in play?
Tactical voting could undermine Reform if left-leaning voters collectively unite to block them in key constituencies, meaning donations must be paired with credible, broad-based messaging to counteract that effect.
