Double Jobbing & Vote Labour to Stop Labour

In this episode, the hosts discuss various aspects of Scottish politics, focusing on the recent controversies surrounding double jobbing, particularly in relation to Stephen Flynn's ambitions within the SNP.

The conversation delves into the intricate dynamics of Scottish politics, focusing on the influence of Westminster on local parties, the leadership of Anas Sarwar and Russell Findlay, and the implications of tax policy on economic growth. The speakers discuss the upcoming budget, the role of the SNP, and the challenges faced by Scottish Labour, while also evaluating the effectiveness of current political strategies and leadership styles.

Labour and SNP Draw Level

New polling by Survation for True North (Geoff's Strategic Advisory firm) is out - how does it compare to what Humza Yousaf told us on last week's live podcast? We listen back to some of his answers and compare them to the polling which suggests the SNP and Labour are neck-and-neck on seat projections at the general election. Plus, we reveal the details of Geoff and Andy's election bets; and answer some of your questions. Also we look at Sir Tom Hunter's calls for changes on tax - does it feed into current political conversation in Scotland?

Crisis Comms and Campervans

Calum, Geoff and Andy reflect on the last couple of weeks since our exclusive with former SNP leadership candidate and Scottish Government Finance Secretary Kate Forbes and conversation with former Health Secretary Jeane Freeman in our previous two episodes. Plus, we consider the woes of the SNP - has Kate Forbes dodged a bullet? How is Humza Yousaf handling the fallout from the police investigation into financial mismanagement within the SNP? How can the party that, for years, has claimed to speak for the people of Scotland, show this much contempt for the people of Scotland so as to hide things from them? Plus we look at the suggestion from Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party leader, Douglas Ross, that tactical voting should be used to keep the SNP out. Hosted on Acast.

Rishi Ready?

This is episode one of a two-part special analysing Rishi Sunak taking over as Prime Minister. In this episode: what is the state of the Conservative Party? He's inheriting a mess - we assess who's been behaving badly. Kirsty and Oscar share their experiences of meeting Rishi Sunak and working with him - what's he really like? We find out about steps he took when he was meeting farmers despite not being a meat-eater, and how he is "fiercely" intelligent. Kirsty outlines his in-tray, Oscar cheers for Boris Johnson but concludes now was not the right time for him to try to make a comeback as Prime Minister. And what's Kirsty and Oscar's advice to those who are stepping into Downing Street as part of the new administration? Plus, we find unanimity on something or, actually, someone! Find out *who* it is.

Stop it and Roll it: Sunak's 100 Days

We bring back everyone's favourite: Stop it and Roll it. The last time we did this was for Rishi Sunak's first speech on the steps of Downing Street. We go back through what he said then, and measure it against his performance during his first 100 days. Kirsty describes ferrets with flick knives - it's just one of her many analogies this week. Frankie has some words of wisdom for Sir Keir Starmer if he wishes to take on the ambition for "integrity, accountability and professionalism." And we say hello those of you who have joined our mailing list. If you've not already, pop in your details at whitehallsources.com/mailinglist. Hosted on Acast.

The Government's Advent Calendar

On every day until Christmas, someone, somewhere is on strike. That, combined with colder weather and the need for more heating making the cost of living crisis very real for many thousands of us, means the Government's advent calendar is like no other. Kirsty Buchanan, a former special adviser to Theresa May, compares this run up to Christmas to what is usually calm and traditionally a period that's a little easier to allow exhausted political staff a bit of a break. Calum was at the Times Radio, The Times, and The Sunday Times joint Christmas party last night; Kirsty has a cold. We've got an update on Oscar, and a nod ahead to Whitehall Sources 2.0. Also a new concept from Kirsty: front footery vs back footery. What's it like getting woken up at 2am with news of a political crisis? And we open the doors to The Correspondence Unit to read your - very well informed and insightful - messages. Email anytime: hello@whitehallsources.com. Hosted on Acast.
