  • What do U-turns tell us about a government?

    What do U-turns tell us about a government?
    Jan 13 2026
    Since our last podcast on the risks of an unsubtle focus on the cost of living, the Government has carried out another U-turn to protect pubs from increases in business rates. Number 10 says this is a sign of an increasingly nimble government responding quickly to potential problems – but why do the problems arise in the first place? And will there be more U-turns now that Keir Starmer has pledged to put more money in people’s pockets? • It’s time for the first live show of 2026 at Kings Place, and there's a lot to make sense of!

    Is Starmer’s focus on the cost of living more risky than it seems?
    Jan 9 2026
    Keir Starmer has proclaimed the government’s entire focus is on the cost of living. But to what degree can he control price rises, and will voters feel better off in the coming months? Should governments intervene to control prices? Plus, brilliant questions on leadership, Britain and the EU and much more. Rock & Roll Politics is live at Kings Place on February 11th. Tickets here.

  • How long can Starmer claim he has no view on Trump and Venezuela?

    How long can Starmer claim he has no view on Trump and Venezuela?
    Jan 6 2026
    Trump has carried out a coup in Venezuela - how long will he seek to rule over it, and then what? He is not the first US President who has acted unilaterally without telling the UK, and he is not the first who has removed a leader without a follow up plan. And why did Starmer’s long BBC 1 interview work for him, the interviewer and the viewers? Subscribe to Patreon for live events, bonus podcasts and to get the regular podcast a day early and ad free.
