Rory lecturing us on ”facts” he’s learned from Chat GPT at least Alastair has actually read Project 25. Hard to believe Rory wants our government run by Chat GPT
Rachel maddow show
No it’s not. What is this nonsense? His to lose? That would imply the US is in a rigged election system and Americans are going to be in a system like Russia, North Korea, Iran, Venezuelan, etc. Excuse you. We have a democracy no matter how imperfect it has at least free and fair elections.
Can’t believe times have changed so much that I now like and respect both of you. Thank you for the podcast and yes, I love international updates. My question for you is about misinformation. In the upcoming US election, a large percentage of the population will be casting their vote based on misinformation, what’s the solution to stop that?
As I understand it, they aren’t *allowed* to have 2 people from the same state, hence Newsome was a non-starter. Whitmer ruled herself out.
All the Americans are pronouncing it Walls.
Wish the commentators could keep their egos in check?
Is the predominant use of VPN Harris first name racist rather than serial?
Love that final comment! Share the wealth you billionaires
How about the uk finance minister going after oligarchs and their enablers loot?
Rory needs to keep off chatgpt he’s sounding more ill Infront than ever
Obama and the others who didn’t immediately endorse Harris are the 4 party leaders. They were constrained from doing so BY that role, so as not to be seen to be pressurising the party’s choice. Listen to some Americans before waving your opinions.
I absolutely love this podcast. Thank you boys !!
Luv tbe SBProt team leader comment. In truth the US SS overdo their role aren’t flexible enough driven by rule protocol and aren’t capable reacting to situation. Add in using state troopers and local police all with different chains of command, comms protocols and IT systems, is it any wonder the rooftop shooter wasn’t stopped quicker. Answer no.
Channel 4 is regularly reporting about the war in Sudan and civil war in Myanmar. I am astonished that you didn’t mention them. Maybe another search might have revealed more ? But overall I really enjoy listening to your podcast, Marianne
Blair’s proposed ID card, back in the day, was FAR from simple! It was full of things like retina scans and other tech that frequently misidentified people of colour and was going to cost more than a passport. What happens to the poor or homeless? If it was a very simple card, introduced gradually and sensitively, with low or no cost to the citizens there’d be fewer objections. But it will never be like that.
jrm. A dangerous man masked by manners and erudition and you’ve fallen for it
That’s why nationalised industries were often so badly run: failed MPs being shoehorned in to be in charge of them, instead of recruiting someone competent.
Except they’re right Biden needs to go, and the GOP is dangerous in its sycophancy to Trump and his backers. The hosts and their country know an awful lot about politics, democracy, and fascists; and as they fight the same problems there, they look at us with sympathy and horror because they know precisely how it ends if we don’t clean up our government
Provocative and ill informed and a title that’s not really understanding of American politics. It’s just making the way easier for a Trump victory and American democracy leaning to being more hard right wing and the extremists on both sides wins in the end. That’s what this headlines served up. BS from a country across the ocean that is putting out opinions that look to undermine and interfere with the US because that’s everyone’s favorite pastime right? England you have your own country please
I thought you both dismissed Julian Assange in an unacceptable way. The potential the US has in attacking journalists is appalling and the UK just did its bidding regardless of personal judgements of Assange’s actions. I remain very unimpressed.
Really disappointed at Rory’s response to trans issues and Rowling. That witch trial podcast is insidious nonsense created to paint Rowling as a victim.
Please could you do a piece on economic inequality, which is fundamentally why the Conservatives are going to lose so badly. Take a look at the series of Utube videos by Gary Stevenson under the guise of Gary’s Economics https://youtube.com/@garyseconomics and especially this one https://youtu.be/Vx6T_5qQkPQ?si=Qm5bwMaFOVXrzosu
I do hope Alastair gets a bottle of medicine for his cough!
Oh my
excellent
I can’t believe the arrogance of the political elites, rocking up at a jail to try and use his influence to assist his friend.
very interesting
So much better with Alastair
