    Series 3: Episode 9 – A nation in a warped looking glass looking for a new normal?
    Aug 16 2021
    Do not adjust your set, we are back. La Revolución will not be Televised, just podcasted. Terry and Derek are soldiering on without our dear leader Şenol, who has gone for a bit of R&R leaving the FT mansions in our hands. The fool! Tel and Del chat about numerous topics that still haven’t passed … Continue reading "Series 3: Episode 9 – A nation in a warped looking glass looking for a new normal?"

  • Series 3: Episode 8 – Government in need of booster jab to see off the Cummings variant.

    Series 3: Episode 8 – Government in need of booster jab to see off the Cummings variant.
    Jul 25 2021
    We focus this weeks podcast on the 7 hour marathon session Dominic Cummings gave to the Health and Science Parliamentary Joint Committee. We question Cummings performance and agree he played it well – it will be very difficult now for this Government to extract itself from the shared failure described by Cummings.  A number of … Continue reading "Series 3: Episode 8 – Government in need of booster jab to see off the Cummings variant."

    Series 3: Episode 7 – Send in the Gun Boats!
    Jul 25 2021
    We look at the elections – wondering whether the SNP will get their majority, will Hartlepool go blue and will Keith Starmer prove his worth to the Labour heartlands or are the poor results projected by the press as fixed as Keith’s quiff.  Jersey – is this the moment Boris Johnson gets his Captain Mainwaring … Continue reading "Series 3: Episode 7 – Send in the Gun Boats!"

    Series 3 – Episode 6: The country needs more than a jab in the arm to get back on its feet.
    Apr 24 2021
    We reflect on the impact of the Race and Met Police reports that were both published recently. What do both do to public confidence and trust in the government and bodies who should protect us all – that is already at all time low! We look at the Hartlepool by-election – will the Northern Independence … Continue reading "Series 3 – Episode 6: The country needs more than a jab in the arm to get back on its feet."

    Series 3 – Episode 5: Matt hands contract to his mate as he cocks up again
    Apr 23 2021
    We look at the Health Secretary’s decisions this week – from booking his holiday (going against Government advice) to handing out another huge contract to his mate. Apparently, if you like horse racing and have Tory friends you can make PPE. And take a look at the comments made by the Chair of the 1922 … Continue reading "Series 3 – Episode 5: Matt hands contract to his mate as he cocks up again"

    Series 3 – Episode 4: The EU is floored by a jab
    Feb 11 2021
    We look at the incredible effort from the NHS and military to vaccinate over 10 million people so far – something this government of chancers are trying to take credit for but we know it’s because the grown ups are now in charge! We wonder how much the EU will regret triggering the short lived … Continue reading "Series 3 – Episode 4: The EU is floored by a jab"

    Series 3 – Episode 3: Sorry seems to be the hardest word
    Feb 1 2021
    We reflect on the awful milestone this week as the UK passed 100,000 deaths to Covid but focus our attention on this government’s continued failure to get a grip on the pandemic. No strategy. No plan. No idea. Agreeing this is what you get with hobbyist ministers who just don’t care! Looking at the unsurprising … Continue reading "Series 3 – Episode 3: Sorry seems to be the hardest word"

    Series 3 – Episode 2: Lady Gaga toasts America with a cup of Joe
    Jan 27 2021
    We look at Trumps goodbye which ended with loud music similar to any Slug and Lettuce pub and a 21 gun salute that fired blanks, a bit like Trumps administration. We welcome President Joe to the top table and discuss the challenges he faces and wonder whether he will be able to steer the US … Continue reading "Series 3 – Episode 2: Lady Gaga toasts America with a cup of Joe"
