Inspired by the UK’s most famous voter, Brenda from Bristol, four close watchers of politics agree - and freely disagree - about the twists and turns of the General Election 2024 - and beyond. With Steve Richards, broadcaster and author, Tim Montgomerie, founder of Conservative Home and a serial political entrepreneur, Iain Martin, Times columnist and Miranda Green of the Financial Times. We hope you agree with us, rather than with Brenda, that it’s a useful addition to the debate. --- Credits: Viral Tribe Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Will May's elections spell the end for the two main parties?

    With the campaigns well under way for parliament and government in Scotland and Wales, plus local fights across much of England, the team debate how high the stakes might be for both Labour and the Conservatives. Could it prove a terminal catastrophe for Starmer and Badenoch? And will the electoral splintering to the right and left to Reform and the Greens be permanent? Spoiler: we do not agree.

    How will the UK handle the energy crisis?

    With the international situation so fluid, the team debate government options for help with bills, and furious business complaints. Is it time to say no? Is it the 1970s all over again? Plus: we all confess to being fans of Alan Johnson, and of thrillers. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Is the Iran war a disaster?

    With the conflict in its third week, the team debates the consequences of the war and assesses where the British and American public are on the military action and the pressure on prices.

    Will war in the Middle East drive the US and Britain apart?

    With a regional conflict spreading beyond Iran and Israel, Prime Minister Keir Starmer is far from "shoulder to shoulder" with the US president. As Trump rains down disapproval on his head, the team hotly debate American strategy and ask whether the so-called special relationship is collateral damage. Plus: the fascinating political backdrop to the Chancellor’s deliberately dull spring statement. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    For our weekend episode, the team analyse the aftermath of the extraordinary Gorton and Denton by-election result and the humiliation suffered by Labour and the other old parties.

    The Mandelson Files - are we going to learn too much?

    What will be the political consequences when the full Mandelson documents are published? Modern politicians are robotic enough, but if all their private exchanges risk becoming public will they dare to be human? Can we combine transparency with the need for ministers to have space to be human? Or do we have the right to full disclosure when power appears to have been abused? Plus, will the Education Secretary’s SEND reforms work? And the team assess the prospects ahead of this week’s crucial by-election. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Is the Royal Family under threat?

    The arrest of Andrew, formerly Prince Andrew, has been described as the worst crisis for the Royal Family in a century.

Plus, the fallout from the Munich Security Conference. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
