Customer Reviews
Island of honesty
As someone from Australia, I really enjoy hearing insider’s views on the wider politics of the UK, and now, the US. Alastair and Rory are from a thoughtful centre of the left and right respectively. For US politics, Scaramucci has been a revelation. He’s unapologetic and honest, very smart, and still close enough to the insiders to provide some fascinating insights.
Microphone for Rory
Please can you find a microphone for Rory that will tone down his lisp.
Australia
Can we have an Australian version please. I am a rusted on Liberal, but love your balance. There is no totally bad or good in each government.
Thank you
