The stakes in the US midterm elections could not be higher – and Donald Trump has had six years to learn from his failure to overturn the 2020 presidential vote. Democrats are likely to take control of Congress but Trump has intensified his rhetoric,... more

Ros Taylor’s account of the Professor Arday story was disappointing in many respects. Her evidence-free suggestion that Liverpool John Moores University’s review of PhD plagiarism accusations was self-interested and less than honest is scurrilous. She fails to mention the role of Nathan Cofnas the ‘race realist’ (read racist) in agitating the furore and constantly uses the tabloid click-bait framing of Dr Arday as a “poster-child” for DEI - sloppy, lazy journalism. A lot remains to be investi... more
Andrew Harrison is the complete host. Funny too.
I was left puzzled by this episode on North Korea. Presumably the regime doesn't survive on thin air. The fact that it's a corrupt regime, with nuclear weapons, pre - supposes that there is an economy that generates some wealth to be sidelined into those activities and an educated workforce to sustain it. The podcast gave no clue whatsoever as to what the source of this wealth might be. What do North Koreans actually do in their daily lives? Are there any public services; how are they run?
As per my headline this podcast could be great. I thought it had purported to be a non biased podcast with intellectual argument from both sides of the political spectrum which is very hard to find these days.
Unfortunately, there are some impressive hosts eg Raphael,
But some shockingly unimpressive hosts …. Jarvis today, for example, mocking and denigrating reform voters. I am not a reform voter, but want a reasoned argument on all sides.
