  • The Expense of Defence: Is rearming the right priority?
    2025/06/05
    Alex Andreou and Zoe Williams, with special guest, former Home Secretary and author of a new Harold Wilson biography, Alan Johnson, discuss the Strategic Defence Review, the upcoming departmental budgets, whether Starmer's government has a choice, but to spend that money and a choice on where to find it. Also, taking over a stagnant economy after more than a decade of Tory cuts, a poor start in government, trying to balance a tight fiscal position with demands on public services, pressure from a US President, and facing accusations of being unprincipled. Yet Wilson survived and went on to win election after election. What can his story teach the Starmer government? Plus 'Wokey Dokey' and 'Grin And Share It'.

You can’t say: oh well, we’ll gamble that when Trump goes it will go back to normal. You have to say: this has happened, we’ve got to react to it.” "The two Labour Party groups to keep together are not Left and Right, but intellectual progressives and blue collar trade unionists. Both groups contain people from the Left and Right." CALL TO ACTION Fill in the government survey on benefits reform here. GRIN AND SHARE IT Read about men feeding cubs, dressed as bears here.

  • Sunday School: Exit far right, pursued by despair
    2025/06/01
    Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell talk through the week's political news, with a focus on the end of Musk's chemical romance with the White House, Trump's well-earned "TACO" moniker, and Harvard's resistance. Also, we look back at the RBS bail-out and how it continues to be felt in our politics today. PLUS - Watch out. Robert Jenrick's about. Why has our politics become so small, meand, and petty? ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*** “The big difference between Trump’s first term and this one is that everyone around him seems resigned to the idea that they can’t make policy, consult, or shape his thinking ahead of time. The whole outfit has swung into hearing his latest brain-fart, same time as we do, then double down and pretend that it is the best plan ever.” “Jenrick is not a vigilante. He’s not an action man. His defining quality is flaccidity. His reputation is that of a petty, mean, small man, who paints over kids’ murals. So, while the stunt might have worked for someone else, for Jenrick it simply cements his reputation as a petty, mean, small man.” Our bookshop including many of the books we have featured can be found at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠uk.bookshop.org/shop/quietriot⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Email us at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠quietriotpod@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

  • Nigel Farage; Man of The PayPal
    2025/05/29
    Alex Andreou and Naomi Smith discuss the great socialist Farage camouflage mirage, and the reemergence of Dominic "Team Player" Cummings, with special guest Marcus Brigstocke. Also, a deep dive into the UK's reluctance to protect the intellectual property of creatives from Artificial Intelligence. Plus 'Wokey Dokey' and 'Grin And Share It'. You can find the dates to Marcus Brigstocke's "Vitruvian Mango" tour here. ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*** “We have a massive election year next year. The challenge between now and next May is to hold to account the ten councils that Reform now run and the mayors they have got.” “I’m trying to do this thing, partly for my own health, when Reform are speaking where I listen and try to find things I agree with. Things to which I can say ‘yeah, I hear you’. Otherwise I start from a position of absolute hostility and treating everything as if it’s nonsense.” “What on earth do we do with young men? Let’s start by saying: look, this isn’t your fault, but as soon as you’re ready, it is going to be your responsibility to help to make this better. That’s difficult stuff. You can’t cheat those conversations.” “The maddening thing with Nick Clegg is that the trajectory of his shitness is so chartable. He smelled the money, went after it, came back eye-wateringly rich, and in real time, in a way we can observe, he lost any care for the people that this affects.” “People have rights to their product. It’s astonishing for Nick Clegg to shrug and say: there’s no way of stopping AI from stealing your stuff… If I created a great new drone, that went into Tesco and nicked whatever parts it needed all the time, I promise you I would have a f***ing problem. The system would say: fix your product or it’s dead.” CALLS TO ACTION Support BYLINES NETWORK here. Support HOPE NOT HATE here. Support DEMOCRACY FOR SALE here.
