Great explainer for an observer! I know nothing about guilts, bonds, hedge funds etc so this was a great episode for me! Thank you.
Please, please, please, get rid of this idiot Dugmore. This awful person makes the whole thing totally unbearable. He’s completely out of his depth intellectually, adds nothing to the conversation, and delivers every line with nauseating millennial leftist smugness. Send him back to the ‘Politics Joe’ ghetto!
Truly, how preposterous was this discussion…bored half way thru..summed up when Ailbhe discussing those in contention for Lab leadership..after a long ridiculous list (loise haigh FFS) said “ have I missed anyone”..this “discussion “ ,seriously,was the absolute nadir of useless tittle tattle…it’ll be a while before I engage with it again
Generally great show but bizarre to accept promotional interview from a trade body representing one of the most damaging industries for the health of our nation.
Comfort blanket stuff for us on the left wing.
