    All Good Things...

    Well that's all folks, its been a blast as cooler people than me might say. 300 episodes and ParPolBro is done so here is the usual gags on the return of Truss, the IMF warnings and Johnson's Nads, plus an official resignation speech, ParPolBro secrets and all the descriptions of Sunak, Starmer and Gove from the podcast ever.

    Decisively Slow

    Decisively Slow

    Zahawi's gone so that only leaves Rishi Sunak having to make decisive decisions about well, pretty much the entire Conservative Party. Dominic Raab seems to have taken up bullying as a full time job, Jeremy Hunt keeps talking about E's which explains his beady little mad eyes and Boris Johnson really wants people to like him again. Plus a chat with independent councillor Ashley Baxter (@deepingdo) and an important announcement about ParPolBro.

    Deliberately Careless

    Deliberately Careless

    A guest-less pod due to well, carelessness which is the in-word this week. Nadhim Zahawi has been extremely careless with his hiring of accountants to advise he avoid tax on £27m of investments and even more careless hiring lawyers to sue anyone who said he did what he did. Still what more could you want from a Conservative chair than the kind of criminal activity that just shows he fits in with everyone else? A jokes only one on Sunak's seatbelt, Braverman's trafficker assistance program and the BBC being balanced but only between Tory leaders.

    Or Not Politics

    Or Not Politics

    The podcast returns to find that, well, nothing has really changed. The NHS is in serious trouble, public sector workers are still having to strike and cost of living is still silly. Luckily Rishi Sunak's government are doing a resounding nothing about it, and generally hoping it'll all be fixed by them ignoring it and assuming it'll eventually go away. Zahawi's avoided millions, Starmer's self-diagnosis and a chat with Dr Julia Grace Patterson (@JuJuliaGrace) at Every Doctor (@EveryDoctorUK) on the NHS Crisis.

    Un-Useful Idiots

    Un-Useful Idiots

    Do Tories do Christmas? Surely think Father Christmas gives toys out to far too many children and why did anyone let that refugee family stay in a stable when its heated on expenses and wasn't for them? A last brief ParPolBro podcast of 2022 on Rishi Sunak's ant-strike legislation, Hunt letting bankers ruin things again and Labour just being, well, the worst. Pod times will return in '23!

News and politics that isn’t just depressing

So good that this Android user got his old iPad out, installed the podcast app and left this glowing review. Oh yeah, the glowy bit is that while the world has a habit of burning you can be sure of a weekly laugh at the architects of our doom as well as some relaxed informative chatting about things that really matter. Oh and you have to check out the Christmas recital of nicknames for BoJo The Clown.

Fast and Hilarious

One of the few sources of news that I trust, with the added benefit of being eye-wateringly funny. His descriptions of public officials, especially. But not all just comedy - he also interviews interesting and intelligent people. PLUS it sounds like the street he lives on should be the set of a sitcom. Give it a listen.

**2021 Update**
Still a great listen.

Informative and Funny

I listen to this podcast regularly to keep track of what’s going on with Brexit, and it’s nice that it’s hilarious at the same time. Otherwise it would be the worst chore I’ve ever thought of, so then just as bad as Brexit itself. Great other topics get added in as well. Keep up the awesome work, Tiernan!
