Decisively Slow

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2023/01/31

Zahawi's gone so that only leaves Rishi Sunak having to make decisive decisions about well, pretty much the entire Conservative Party. Dominic Raab seems to have taken up bullying as a full time job, Jeremy Hunt keeps talking about E's which explains his beady little mad eyes and Boris Johnson really wants people to like him again. Plus a chat with independent councillor Ashley Baxter (@deepingdo) and an important announcement about ParPolBro. FIND ASHELY ON THE SOUTH KESTEVEN GOV WEBSITE HERE:

Deliberately Careless

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2023/01/24

A guest-less pod due to well, carelessness which is the in-word this week. Nadhim Zahawi has been extremely careless with his hiring of accountants to advise he avoid tax on £27m of investments and even more careless hiring lawyers to sue anyone who said he did what he did. Still what more could you want from a Conservative chair than the kind of criminal activity that just shows he fits in with everyone else? A jokes only one on Sunak's seatbelt, Braverman's trafficker assistance program and the

Or Not Politics

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2023/01/17

The podcast returns to find that, well, nothing has really changed. The NHS is in serious trouble, public sector workers are still having to strike and cost of living is still silly. Luckily Rishi Sunak's government are doing a resounding nothing about it, and generally hoping it'll all be fixed by them ignoring it and assuming it'll eventually go away. Zahawi's avoided millions, Starmer's self-diagnosis and a chat with Dr Julia Grace Patterson (@JuJuliaGrace) at Every Doctor (@EveryDoctorUK) on the

Un-Useful Idiots

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2022/12/13

Do Tories do Christmas? Surely think Father Christmas gives toys out to far too many children and why did anyone let that refugee family stay in a stable when its heated on expenses and wasn't for them? A last brief ParPolBro podcast of 2022 on Rishi Sunak's ant-strike legislation, Hunt letting bankers ruin things again and Labour just being, well, the worst. Pod times will return in '23!

Eat Less To Stop Putin

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2022/12/06

Thank goodness we now know a way we can stop Putin's terrible oppression of Ukraine. That's right everyone, we just have to eschew working rights, and never earn enough for eating or heating again. That'll stop him! You take that Russia, we'll be getting hypothermia over here to totally show you what's what! Nadhim Zahawi's weird ideas, everybody's (kung fu) striking and a chat with Phil Lindsey at the 4 Day Week Campaign about how we should all be working less. 4 DAY WEEK CAMPAIGN:

Getting Rid Of Everyone

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2022/11/29

Net migration is at a record high, which is shocking as it means people still want to come to the UK even though you'd wait longer for an ambulance than to do interspace travel and colonise a planet we haven't ruined yet. Tories complaining about wind, Michelle Mone's pants PPE and the protests in China.

Staring Into An Imaginary Black Hole

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2022/11/22

Keep the politics out of football they say, something that is easy to do when the World Cup is in a country where they'll execute you for protesting. Still nothing more British than doing nothing about it, which is also how the Autumn Statement is tackling the economic crisis. Rishi Sunak's football wall chart, Swiss deals and who Keir Starmer's been kissing. Plus a return to the podcast from Maurice Mcleod (@mowords) to talk about Labour's undemocratic candidate elections. THREAD OF EPISODES WITH

Bullies For You

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2022/11/15

Is there anyone in the cabinet that isn't a bully? Has Rishi Sunak hired them as protection or did he have to take them on or they'd flush his head down the loo? Budgets to fill an imaginary black hole, a new deal with France that already hasn't worked for four years and a chat with Dr Vinicius De Carvalho (@rennavmc) at the King's Brazil Institute (@kingsbrazil) about the recent Brazilian elections where they finally got rid of Bolsonaro.

Taking It Back To The 2010s

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2022/11/08

Austerity, blaming asylum seekers for everything and Peter Kay doing a live tour again where he'll no doubt check if anyone remembers his last one. Its all back to the 2010s but with the sad problem that we've already been through them so this is now worse as a result. Bullying Gavin Williamson, even worse Suella Braverman and COP27. Plus director of Progressive Economy Forum (@PEF_online) James Meadway (@meadwaj) on the state of the economy, again but you know, worse since a few weeks back when I

No Grown Ups In Charge Here, Sorry

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2022/11/01

I suppose if we've always wanted the government to be more transparent, we can't be too upset that Suella Bravermen now wants to share her emails with everyone. It's impressive to get the sack from a job after 6 weeks, be back in it within 6 days and then be even worse at it, but our Home Secretary really does excel at being a truly terrible human being. All of that, Sunak's new cabinet, Brazil's new President and Dr Matt Winning (@mattwinning) on the climate crisis. CHECK MATT'S WEBSITE HERE:

Prime Ministers of the United Kingdom are just like buses aren't they? You know you have one you don't want, wait 44 days and then there's another one you don't want. Er...yeah. Truss is out, Sunak is in. Different face, same terrifying consequences for the country, different weird monotone inability to talk publicly.

Who wants to be Chancellor today?

Partly Political Broadcast ·

2022/10/17

Will this podcast still be topical when it lands? Will it last past lunchtime? Jeremy Hunt is back and this time as Chancellor after the last one shorted his own career. All the PM's budget plans are scrapped and yet somehow she says she'll continued doing what she promised to even though none of that is left. Will she last the week? Will we? All that and Therese Coffey's illegal antibiotic dealing business, plus a chat with Dr Roham Alvandi (@DrRohamAlvandi) about the protests in Iran. SIGN THE

We Are The Anti-Growth Coalition Society

2022/10/10

Welcome to the Anti-Growth Coalition! Who else is in the club? Take a look around, its absolutely everyone except the Conservative Party, who weirdly aren't helping to grow anything so you think they'd want in, but they get very angry when we ask. Well some of them anyway. There are quite a few in that corner telling Grant Shapps to transcribe how much they hate Liz Truss.

Fool's Paradise

It's Conservative Conference time which means all the worst opinions in the planet are in one place. And its all happening just after Liz Truss's and Kwasi Kwarteng's worst first weeks have become worst second and third weeks too, ending with a u-turn on a 45p.

Trickling Over Everyone

When is a budget not a budget? When its a mini-budget and also a massive economy crashing trashfire of policy. Kwasi Kwarteng has decided the best way to make sure everyone survives a cost of living crisis is to give more money to bankers and no one else, and the pound has responded by throwing itself off an economical cliff. All that plus Truss meets Biden, the Labour conference begins and a chat with Aditi Jehangir (@AditiJehangir) at Living Rent (@Living_Rent) about campaigning to get Scotland's

All change on perfectly normal island this week, with a new king and a new PM in just 48 hours. Obviously there is only one story and the entire world has stopped for 10 days including this podcast that contains zero comedy whatsoever out of respect, and therefore is exactly the same as all previous episodes.

We have a new PM and yet again its absolutely no one that anyone other than the 160,000 worst people in the country would want anywhere near power. Welcome to the stage Liz Truss. No it's over here. No that's the way out. Oh well. The podcast returns from its summer break in time to herald the new but exactly the same and yet also worse era of Truss, give some handy tips to save money on your energy bill and have a chat with RMT rep Tony Collins (@tontytrains) about union action.
