Customer Reviews
A show that captures most of the important points
Informative and factual, albeit a little woke at times with a slight anti Tory bias. Peston is the worst thing example when he does a cameo. Journalists need to stop sourcing only people with poor financial outlooks and creating the impression that it’s the majority that face financial Armageddon, it’s tough we get it.US and Ukraine coverage is the best aspect. Tom Bradby’s delivery bus excellent
Wegovy report just dreadful
Just listened to the report on Wegovy (September 2023) - really bad. Clearly the reporters did not understand the system of medicines regulation in the UK, with suggestions that the general public could buy this prescription-only medicine easily if only they could afford it. Both wrong and dangerous. Why did no one seek medical input eg from the ABPI? From a qualified health practitioner?
Just a poor quality report, with insufficient research to be properly informative. If this represents the podcast’s normal standards, then avoid, avoid, avoid.
Good
I watch it is because It’s remind of Queen Elizabeth
