  • Insightful

    Very much enjoyed the latest ep of the interview with Keir Starmer. Quite a coup for Pete to get to sit down with him and hear about the man behind the facade of being Prime Minister. Pete just has such a good way of interviewing in this context which makes it sound like just a normal conversation at a personal level, and this was an insightful and enlightening one reminding us all that politicians are still just human beings like the rest of us
