    Anti-Woke Wake: Is the Tory Party dead or just resting?
    Oct 9 2025
    Special guest Sam Freedman, discusses the week's big stories with Alex, Naomi, and Kenny. Is there a future for the Conservative Party? Is there a future IN the Conservative Party. Should they stick with Badenoch, or twist and risk the - incredibly - LESS likeable, Jenrick? AND - Is France basically ungovernable now? Our favourite Chevalier, Olivier Morel, talks us through the latest drama. PLUS - with a deal on Gaza close, the repercussions for Jews globally may take much longer to heal. INCLUDING - a very funny (and surprisingly angry) 'Wokey Dokey'. ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*** “For a long time the Tories have depended on ‘the party in the media’, as it is often called, to maintain their relationship with their base - the Mail and Telegraph in particular, because organisations like the BBC often take their cue from them. Losing those papers to Reform is very dangerous.” “The party is already where [Jenrick] wants it, because basically he’s been shadow-leading the Tories, and it hasn’t helped their poll ratings. Also, he focus-groups really badly. Even voters who agree with him dislike him. So, I don’t think he is the answer to the party’s problems.” “We are roughly the same distance from Labour having to call a General Election, as we are from the last pandemic lockdown. Try to conceive of that amount of stuff still to happen. For me, it’s far too soon to predict how the next election will shape up.” “When challenged about the consequences of leaving the ECHR for the wider EU trade agreement Badenoch said that she could give notice to leave it all behind. Best for Britain polling shows that this plays very badly with voters who have not abandoned the Tories for Reform - and who tend to be more moderate.” “All political parties in France are behaving as if they have a majority and deserve to implement their programme. I have heard several leaders adopting a very grave tone and saying now is the time to compromise, but they mean everyone else must compromise. This is making France ungovernable.” “Will Macron resign? I think it’s not in his DNA to do that at all. And on the international stage, he still believes he has a big role to play. Against that, Macron is facing criticism and even calls to resign from loyalists within his own camp and this is new.” “Whether this plan succeeds depends directly on how much pressure Trump puts on Netanyahu. the Israelis will be at the negotiation with the objective of changing the terms in a way that forces Hamas to say ‘no’.” “I have never known the Jewish community to be so divided over Israel. The sheer violence of what’s happened in Gaza has pushed a lot of people into a very uncomfortable position of believing in Israel as an idea but being horrified by what the current gov’t is doing.” CALLS TO ACTION: Sam's substack can be found here.

    Sunday School: Game of Mones
    Oct 5 2025
    Strip away the schadenfreude around Michelle Mone's fall from grace, and what is the real story here? Naomi Smith and Kenny Campbell look at a scandal that is far from over. Also, with the Conservatives and Greens in conference mode, we consider the contrasting fortunes of their respective leaders – and dive into some fascinating data around Tory voters. Plus, in tribute to the late, great Patricia Routledge, we ask the BIG question of the week: how would Hyacinth Bucket vote? And what about other TV greats, such as Rab C. Nesbitt and Del Boy? ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*** Buy something from ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠our bookshop here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

    Keir as Crystal - Time to Call Things by Their Names
    Oct 3 2025
    Do fightbacks always begin at Liverpool? An unexpectedly feisty speech by Starmer leads to a lot of pearl-clutching by Reform. But will our media cover it? Also, the former Welsh leader of Reform admits to taking Russian bribes. But will our media cover it? And with the election in Moldova sends an unequivocal F-U to Moscow. But will our media cover it? Alex Andreou, Kenny Campbell and special guest, Annette Dittert, discuss. PLUS dispatches by Naomi Smith, from inside the Labour Conference. Including 'Grin And Share It' and the triumphant, if extremely confusing, return of 'Wokey Dokey'. ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*** “I have spent a lot of time in the Northeast recently and was shocked by the amount of anger from lifelong Labour voters who feel betrayed… The sentence I heard most often was: they take it out on us, they take it out on the poor, because it’s easier.” “It was really important that Starmer called those policies out for what they are - they are racist. Farage stokes this up, cynically and cleverly. Labour have tried to tiptoe around it all summer and it hasn’t worked.” “We saw it during Brexit and we see it with the AfD in Germany. Pandering to the far right never works. And yet conservative parties seem to have this - in German we call it ‘angstlust’ - this desire to go somewhere dangerous.” “Racism is a little like political pornography. Its practitioners enjoy it privately or with groups of likeminded people. But if one were to start enjoying it in public, awkward questions will arise.” “From Russian bribes to Musk beaming onto big screens advocating violence, we can’t go on pretending this isn’t happening. That there are not powerful interests from both East and West pouring money into destabilising our democratic processes.” CALLS TO ACTION: Let us have your ideas on how to send the BBC a message.
