    In today's episode (recorded in Friday 24th November 2023), Jacqui and Al discuss the full fallout from the Autumn Statement.

    We also discuss the rise in populism and nationalism signalled by the electoral victories of far right candidates in recent elections in The Netherlands and in Argentina. What does this signal? Why is populism on the rise? And what are the geopolitical consequences?

  • The war of words over Israel-Gaza; by-elections; and events closer to home

    The war of words over Israel-Gaza; by-elections; and events closer to home
    Oct 29 2023

    In today's episode (recorded in Friday 27th October 2023), Jacqui and Al discuss the war of words surrounding the Israel-Gaza crisis that is embroiling everyone from the Secretary-General of the United Nations to the BBC and what that reveals about the challenge of understanding and interpreting such a timeless and seemingly intractable geopolitical issue.

    We also discuss the recent by-election in Mid Bedfordshire and, closer to home, the possible judicial review into NHS staff bonuses (a BIG issue in Surrey Heath), the growing petition on the closure of the M3 Bagshot-Lightwater footbridge, and gratuitously plug the upcoming Surrey Heath Liberal Democrat dinner, with celebrity guest, Sue Perkins.
