    Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor: The photo that says it all

    The Matts sweep up an extraordinary 24 hours in British history.

    The Two Matts Q&A: Starmer coup, Sadiq for PM and too much Dracula?

    The Matts answer listeners' questions. This week: is Keir Starmer the new Joe Biden; why isn’t Sadiq Khan in the frame for next PM; how does Boris Johnson get off so lightly; should we keep calling Prince Andrew Prince Andrew; why are the Brits sucking up to Noel Gallagher; and do TV bosses make too many repeats of telly classics?

    Re: Starmer - a little humble pie, a lot of conviction

    The Matts reflect on the last week, and address their own fallibilities (and thank you, dear listeners, for pointing them out!). But the argument around Keir Starmer’s premiership remains solid. Also - is the Royal Family doing enough to bring the wrong ‘un formerly known as Prince Andrew to justice? Enjoy. Produced by Matt Withers OFFER: Get The New World for just £1 for the first month.

    Face it, Keir, it’s over. But you could still save the nation

    The Matts digest the events of the past 24 hours. Will Morgan McSweeney’s departure delay or hasten the existential crisis facing Keir Starmer? Does Starmer’s plea bargain over Peter Mandelson’s appointment wash? How could he take a bold personal decision and salvage his legacy? And of all the problematic contenders circling overhead, who could achieve mission barely-possible: to keep Nigel Farage out of Downing Street? It’s a special bonus edition of the podcast today.

    The Two Matts Q&A: Mandelson rage, arrest Andrew Windsor and Zack Polanski on drugs

  8. This is the end for Keir Starmer

    5. FEB.

    This is the end for Keir Starmer

    The Matts assess the last 24 hours and reach an inescapable conclusion: Keir Starmer will not survive the Mandelson affair. He may limp on for weeks, even months. But the damage of this specific event has ignited such a rage within and without the Labour Party that his departure as prime minister feels more than likely - it feels both inevitable and necessary. If Starmer and his government were strong and making headway in the nation, this scandal would be entirely survivable. But they’re not.
