- Not exactly radical
The podcast is OK, buts but right of centre. On the whole it feels like a group of people who think they are radical, but very much in the mould of the Starmer, McSweeney, Streeting right wingers who have stolen the Labour Party

United Kingdoma month ago - So disappointing
I was really enjoying your podcast, but the latest episode gave me pause - the Greens/Polanski-bashing was alarming, the bias in the reporting of ‘evidence’ even more so. 1-star because I had to. Unsubscribed.

Trump can not control how people feel

It’s about winning the day. One day at a time. Which means it will be a compete disaster. Best tactic is to bait Reform into being their worse selves. Get straight to the p... more
