  • The Fork in The Road for Starmer
    Apr 17 2025
    Alex Andreou and Naomi Smith welcome special guest Rafael Behr to talk about the choices facing the Starmer government. Or as Raf put it "the fork on the road that everyone seems to see, but Starmer refuses to acknowledge. And - why has our right wing media landscape become so Americanised? Plus 'Wokey Dokey' and 'Grin And Share It'. ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** ”I think we should be very glad that we are blessed with quite bad fascists.” “The public expect Starmer to be more ambitious in recalibrating the UK’s relationship with the EU. If he is not prepared to do that now, when the atmospherics are what they are and the entire world order has been turned upside-down, maybe we have to accept he is just not going to do it.” “There is no way to explain why one would think TikTok is dangerous because the firm is close to the Chinese regime, but X is fine because it is fully owned by a rich guy that does Nazi salutes, to think one agenda dangerous but not the other, that doesn’t involve some basic ‘state-bad, private-good’ belief.” “There is a profound crisis in the British Right, because the refutation of their big-picture political model has been so thorough - not just Brexit, austerity, the Truss budget, the most popular thing Sunak ever did was to pay everyone’s wages - they have nowhere to go.” CALLS TO ACTION Go here to add your voice on what our new UK/EU relationship should look like. https://www.commonsensedeal.com/ Foxglove - the UK organisation fighting for tech equality can be found here. The international network People vs Big Tech is here. GRIN AND SHARE IT Read about antiviral lablab chewing gum. READING Read the FT piece about why the anti-woke platform seems to have backfired for Australian Conservatives.

Excellent Political Podcasts

One of the best political podcasts there is, humour and compassion, attention detail and facts. Also the team promote rather than protest. Like the Jedi.
