  • What will Trump's second term in office look like?
    2024/11/08

    The Three Old Hacks consider what we might expect from a second Trump presidency.

    "Will it mean a more isolationist America?" asks MIhir Bose. What will it mean for Ukraine?

    Has he made political discourse coarser, or are the off-colour remarks he makes no worse than the kind of thing President Lyndon B Johnson used to say?

    Should we ignore the rhetoric of Trump's speeches, as Piers Morgan suggests, and just look at what he does in the White House rather than what he says?

    Former Sports editor of BBC News Mihir Bose discusses the election of Donald Trump as US President for a second term with political analyst Nigel Dudley and Economics Editor of the Sunday Times David Smith, aka the Three Old Hacks.

  • 40 years since the Brighton bomb
    2024/10/17

    The Three Old Hacks have known each other for 40 years, having met when they were all working for Financial Weekly magazine in 1984, which is also the year David Smith went on to join The Times. He recalls how Nigel Lawson set the standard as a tax reforming Chancellor with his autumn Budget that year, while Nigel Dudley remembers his lucky escape when he decided to go back to his hotel rather than having a nightcap at the bar of the Grand Hotel in Brighton during the Conservative Party Conference, thus missing the IRA's attempt to assassinate the Prime Minister and her Cabinet.

  • Downing St dysfunctional? Surely not!
    2024/10/01

    With a certain cynicism born of decades of political reporting, the Three Old Hacks look at the way in which the press have descended on the newly elected Labour government like a pack of ravening wolves over its approach to the Prime Minister receiving gifts.

    As gifts of everything from expensive clothing to seats to watch Arsenal have been revealed, they discuss whether it matters that politicians receive gifts, and how the Downing St machine has handled – or failed to handle the stories.
