In this podcast, PoliticsJOE's Ava Santina breaks down how Britain can rebuild the left flank of the political spectrum. Stay tuned for in-depth reporting, thought provoking interviews, and expert analysis as the UK faces one of the biggest political battles of the century.


Labour are in power in Britain, but traditional Labour voters are as discontent as they've ever been with a left-wing government. Keir Starmer is battling against low approval ratings, by-election losses, and the rise of Nigel Farage's Reform UK.


But from the depths of despair, there seems to be glimmers of hope in the UK. Zack Polanski's Green Party are on the rise, knocking Labour off their perch in countless polls. Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana are pulling thousands of traditional Labour voters to their new party. In America, figures like Zohran Mamdani, AOC and Bernie Sanders are fighting back against the surge of MAGA Republicanism.

  • Is Keir Starmer about to lose Wales in the local elections?
    Apr 3 2026

    In this episode, we sit down with the leader of Plaid Cymru to explore a question that could reshape Welsh politics: can the party finally overtake Labour and form a government in Wales for the first time? We dig into Plaid’s strategy, the shifting political landscape, and what it would take to convince voters that change is not only possible, but necessary.


    Yet the path isn’t straightforward. As dissatisfaction with traditional parties grows, Nigel Farage and his brand of populist politics loom as an unpredictable force, potentially pulling support in unexpected directions. How does Plaid Cymru plan to counter this challenge while staying true to its vision for Wales?


    From campaign tactics to policy priorities, this conversation offers a candid look at the opportunities and risks ahead in what could be a historic political moment.
