I have just listened to what I think is the most levelheaded sensible discussion regarding how we should prepare to defend the nation against possible attack.
Please interview Rob Ford again - some of the most interesting, informed analysis I’ve heard about our current political landscape. Why is no-one at the top of government listening to this stuff? All the necessary data on which to base an effective strategy is being laid out for them by people like Rob. Thanks very much in general for a great podcast. Unlike some previous reviewers, I’m a big fan of John Harris’s interviews on the streets - if we don’t want to live in our own bubbles, we need th... more
More of a reputation management, and promotion of other corrupt political actors — not real journalism. The guardian cannot be trusted anymore — too much money coming in from NGOs and third party globalist organisations, they are entirely compromised.
I used to subscribe to the Guardian but reading it and listening to the podcasts is depressing in the extreme. They appear to be working towards a Farage government G0d help us!
My favourite UK political podcast - John Harris is a legend and has great rapport with his co-hosts, all provide interesting analysis and insight, with no apparent ego. Love it :-)

A deep-dive, UK-politics-focused show that analyzes Westminster strategy, party dynamics, and election risks through in-depth panel discussions with seasoned political reporters and policy editors. Frequent topics include Labour leadership calculations, local and devolved election results, Brexit implications, defense and foreign policy debates, and the shifting multi-party landscape with Greens and Reform UK. Cross-promo segments with Guardian-produced shows help broaden context, while the hosts' on-the-ground reporting and seat-by-seat analysis tend to anchor each episode in practical political forecasting. Noteworthy is the blend of sharp, data-driven analysis with insider perspective and a willingness to interrogate leadership decisions... more
