  • Powerhouse of journalism

    Anybody who fails to recognise Andrew’s precise knowledge of home and world affairs clearly hasn’t followed him for long enough. A ruthless interviewer so much that MPs avoid him. He’s disliked because he knows what he’s talking about. Great podcast.

    As per title. Andrew Neil is always listenable. Just finished the episode with Prof Steve Keen is calmly brutal. Terrifying.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

It's sad, but the world can no longer rely on Trump's America
Q: Why does President Trump claim there is an energy ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine when experts say there isn't?
Kurt Volker explains that Trump's tweet reflects political signaling rather than a real, auditable agreement; it lacks Ukrainian and Russian buy-in and serves domestic political purposes, while putting distance between Europe and a realistic response to Russia's energy aggression.
If Trump loses the House AND the Senate he will be the lamest of lame ducks
Q: Just give me an overview of the House and the Senate.
Jerry Baker provides a concise state-by-state assessment: the House is likely to trend Democratic due to district changes and incumbency dynamics, while the Senate shows more volatility with several competitive seats; overall, Democrats could end up with a narrow Senate majority, which would influence investigations and legislative priorities.
Andy Burnham has a socialist manifesto for the future. What about for now?
Q: What is your overall impression of Andy Burnham's speech?
The speech presented a clear, emotionally charged vision with personal storytelling and a strong stance on reorienting the economy toward more state ownership and social welfare, though its practicality and timing are questioned given fiscal constraints.
Did Trump threats force the G7 to release 100 million barrels of diesel?
Q: What would be the impact on the British economy if there were a US diesel export ban, and how quickly could it be felt?
The impact would be severe due to Britain's high dependence on imported diesel, regulatory and refining constraints, and storage limits; the ban could tighten supplies, push prices higher, and slow economic activity, especially in energy-intensive sectors, with the timing depending on how swiftly storage and imports could adapt.
How AI bosses 'lost control' and are now begging for regulation
Q: Who are they directing this at, and why should leaders slow down the development of AI?
The speakers discuss the meta-question of governance, noting that leaders from OpenAI and Anthropic are calling for regulatory slowdowns, likely in a bid to avert crises and build a framework before AI becomes too entangled with critical systems.
