The podcast returns from its summer break in slightly truncated form. This week's subjects all rhyme if you pronounce them incorrectly: Afghanistan, the social care plan, Ian Botham.

Political Own Goals - Keeping Football Out Of...

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2021/07/12

Football sadly isn't coming home or trying to settle in England for three years despite being a European citizen which the Home Office wouldn't allow. But its ok because we still have racism and Covid which refuse to leave home and move on with their lives so we still feel like we have a busy house. More on restrictions lifting as things get worse, the Policing Bill, Elections Bills and Borders Bill. Plus defence writer Joe Glenton (@joejglenton) on his upcoming new book 'Veteranhood'.PRE-ORDER

Doing PR For Covid - Restriction Lifting, Giant...

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2021/07/05

If not now, then when? Asks the Prime Minister as though if we waited any longer to open up the country we might actually deal with Covid properly and then he'll have to actually do some work. Infection rates are high but it's ok as we'll learn to live with the virus, you know, by letting people die. Token gestures by the PM that doesn't do gestures, Batley and Spen by-election and why now isn't great for everything trying to return to normal.

Bye Bye Startled Butterbean - Matt Hancock's...

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2021/06/28

Matt Hancock has gone, but not for any of the reasons he should have done. Weirder still is knowing someone found him attractive, though it could just be his good sense of PPE contracts. Javid is back and ready to pay as little attention to what the country needs as Hancock did, and somehow its 5 years since the people voted Brexit and since then its all gone very well apart from everything. No guest this week due to life, but there is every description of Matt Hancock ever said on the podcast since

Matt Hancock is f*cking hopeless. Not my words, well not this week anyway, but the words of Boris Johnson. But isn't everything right now? Chesham and Amersham say no, and the Ed Davey proves them wrong with a tiny orange hammer.

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2021/06/14

More restrictions for everyone, chilled British sausages for no one, socially un-distant BBQs for world leaders. Yes exactly what we thought would happen has happened and freedom day is a bit further away than Johnson planned, unless you're getting married and then sod it, invite the world. Hancock's committee appearance, the silly sausage wars and Tom Peters (@tbtpeters) at Tax Justice UK (@taxjusticeuk) on whether the G7 plan to tax the tech giants will work.TAX JUSTICE UK:

Damp Squibs All Round - Foreign Aid Cuts,...

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2021/06/07

Yet again the government is being helpful by insisting on not helping lots of people. Though to be fair, based on how rubbish they are at most things, maybe that is actually better than them dealing out foreign aid and getting involved. School budgets, trade deals with Liechtenstein and Michael Gove is Pestilence the Horseman of the Apocalypse and I claim my £5.

2021/05/31

Just the gags this week. A guest-less mini episode looking at the 7 hours of Dominic Cummings saying what we've all known for a year, Boris Johnson not having a clue about anything and getting married, again. And of course Matt bloody Hancock who is so bad at his job he's even failing to resign.

2021/05/24

The government are denying they said a thing that they all said on telly and we all saw it, there's a few new variants in town and Priti Patel has to put her job on her coat or she'll forget that she isn't a weird vigilante. Plus Tiernan gives the wrong official name for the B.1.617.2 strain at least 5 times, and chats to interim director of Liberty (@libertyhq) Gracie Mae Bradley (@graciemaybe) about all the ways the government are damaging human rights.JOIN LIBERTY HERE:

2021/05/17

I don't know why I do new episodes of this podcast when I could just get bits of old episodes and copy and paste them each week. Yet again there's a new COVID variant that is only in the UK because Johnson is an idiot, yet again Israel is bombing Gaza, yet again Michael Fabricant has been one of the worst examples of humanity. All of this stuff yet again, plus a chat with Darren McGarvey aka Loki The Scottish Rapper (@lokiscottishrap) about class, Scottish politics and more.CHECK DARREN'S WEBSITE

The elections got done, the incumbents stayed incumbing but more, Labour's vision got COVID blocked or something, the news worked out who the Green party are and hugs are back but not face to face. So just another week in British politics then. Some election analysis from a jazz voiced Tiernan.

2021/05/03

Poor Boris Johnson. He only earns a meagre three times the salary of the average British person which means he just can't afford that essential gold wallpaper without some help from donor pals. It must be so hard being the man of the people where you still don't earn millions despite all the decisions you have to make about buying yachts for dead people or judging your own misdemeanours so you get away with everything. Flat refurbs, DUP changes, and a look at the new British favourite: Norwegian

Vacuums of Integrity - Johnson's pockets, Cummings'...

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2021/04/26

The problem with accusations that Boris Johnson said or did something awful, isn't that they might be seen as gossip or nonsense, but more with boredom that its yet another one and we're tired of repeats. More corruption, the return of the Dominic Cummings character but in an anti-hero but still villainous role and look at the elections on May 6th.

Is there anyone that hasn't worked for Greensill? I'm starting to feel left out. Things be so corrupt even the people monitoring the cronyism be cronied. But it's ok as the government won't let the same happen to football or something.

2021/04/12

This episode contains absolutely no politics at all as its not allowed because everyone is mourning endlessly about Prince Philip being more dead than he has been for the last ten years. So only mourn Prince Philip when listening to this, unless you're hearing it after Sunday 9th in which case go nuts and politics up the place.

A week of flags, lumps, nukes and thumps. The Home Office condemns any thuggery they haven't ordered, no one's going on holiday and the Prime Minister's been jabbed. Another totally normal week in British politics then. Plus Dr Bethany Usher (@bethanyusher) on the effects of celebrity journalism on politics.

2021/03/16

Another week, another series of events dealt with by the government and the authorities with all the tact of an angry toddler with a drum during a 2 minute silence. This was a terrible week to write jokes about but somehow they are here, on the police keeping the public safe from unarmed peacefully protesting women, the scary Policing Bill and Bus Back Better.

Giving It One Percent - Nurse's Pay, Budget 2021,...

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2021/03/09

Nurses don't need money right? They just need more nurses right and then they can exchange their colleagues for food or shelter at the nurse bank or something. I'm not sure that's right but it seems to be what the Prime Minister thinks. No money for nurses, or for anyone to survive past the Autumn according to the Chancellor but luckily the Conservatives can be trusted on the economy which is why there is all the dosh for a big room with TVs in it and to prove the Home Secretary definitely isn't a
