  • Alistair is far to bias, ruins many sensible debates

    Good show, I enjoy the format and listening to these two discuss politics. Alastair however is so unbelievably bias, that he can’t see anything but Labour good, Tori bad. It doesnt feel like a balanced view of politics. Rory feels more balanced.

    I usually enjoy the podcast but Rory was offensively condescending about the Shadow Chancellor’s speech today. He even concluded with the remarks that we shall wait to see what the ’grown up’ economists say. It is so easy to snipe from the sidelines when he will never be called upon to rectify the horrendous financial position his former party has left us in.
