This podcast would be much better if the “founder Tatton” took a backseat role and left Diane and Charlotte to do the talking. He is what is loosing listeners. Quite irritating.
Best thing about this podcast is Diane’s infectious lough! When she laughs I laugh, can’t help myself.
SP is the secret to making even chaotic times seem a little brighter!
Who knew politics could be so entertaining?
Thank you SP team!
Love the team, love the pod, love the insights, please never stop making the SP podcast! ☺️
Breaks down all you need to know about the weeks politics with a dash of hope. Recommend to everyone.
I appreciated the SP posts on FB during Covid that broke down changes and news. Since the move back to normal politics it is nowhere near as impartial. Tatton makes it very obvious that he is a Tory.
