Coronations bring both brickbats and bouquets, as both King Charles and King Andy have found this week.
Alex and Kenny take a detailed look at what Charles's tax disclosures reveal – and keep hidden.
And there's the latest leadership challenges fac... more

Naomi, Kenny and Alex take it one step further and ask whether politics is even capable of dealing ... more

It's appropriate that Starmer's teary farewell comes amid the tenth-anniversary obituaries for Brexit, as the two are inexorably linked.

First up. Kudos to the guys producing a show that is free to listen and isn’t tiered depending on payment. The quality can vary a lot. Generally when Alex is hosting with Naomi and/or Kenny then it’s brilliant. He offers insight and a perspective you don’t get elsewhere. If it’s Kenny and Naomi only then it tends to fall into a very bland groove especially if the guest is a bit dull.
Always thoughtful commentary. Almost all very good guests (unless they are former Tory spin doctors! 🤦). Probably my favourite political podcast.
Makes
you feel better every time.
This continues to be my go to pod for politics. A fantastically well informed team that eschews drama and concentrates on in-depth, proportionate analysis of the topics of the day. Plus the warmth and hilarity of the presenters makes it seem as if you are participating in a discussion with friends. Incidentally, it is on twice weekly not once every two weeks.
The launch of the Rejoin the EU campaign by Best for Britain; the appalling editorial choice by the Beeb about fake migrants; and some excellent film reviews/recommendations. Another excellent QR!👏
