All Good Things...

February 07, 2023 00:01 - 50 minutes - 46.3 MB

Well that's all folks, its been a blast as cooler people than me might say. 300 episodes and ParPolBro is done so here is the usual gags on the return of Truss, the IMF warnings and Johnson's Nads, plus an official resignation speech, ParPolBro secrets and all the descriptions of Sunak, Starmer and Gove from the podcast ever.

Decisively Slow

January 31, 2023 07:14 - 1 hour - 65.6 MB

Zahawi's gone so that only leaves Rishi Sunak having to make decisive decisions about well, pretty much the entire Conservative Party. Dominic Raab seems to have taken up bullying as a full time job, Jeremy Hunt keeps talking about E's which explains his beady little mad eyes and Boris Johnson really wants people to like him again. Plus a chat with independent councillor Ashley Baxter (@deepingdo) and an important announcement about ParPolBro. FIND ASHELY ON THE SOUTH KESTEVEN GOV WEBSITE ...

Deliberately Careless

January 24, 2023 00:01 - 21 minutes - 20.1 MB

A guest-less pod due to well, carelessness which is the in-word this week. Nadhim Zahawi has been extremely careless with his hiring of accountants to advise he avoid tax on £27m of investments and even more careless hiring lawyers to sue anyone who said he did what he did. Still what more could you want from a Conservative chair than the kind of criminal activity that just shows he fits in with everyone else? A jokes only one on Sunak's seatbelt, Braverman's trafficker assistance program an...

Or Not Politics

January 17, 2023 00:01 - 54 minutes - 50 MB

The podcast returns to find that, well, nothing has really changed. The NHS is in serious trouble, public sector workers are still having to strike and cost of living is still silly. Luckily Rishi Sunak's government are doing a resounding nothing about it, and generally hoping it'll all be fixed by them ignoring it and assuming it'll eventually go away. Zahawi's avoided millions, Starmer's self-diagnosis and a chat with Dr Julia Grace Patterson (@JuJuliaGrace) at Every Doctor (@EveryDoctorUK...

Un-Useful Idiots

December 13, 2022 00:01 - 18 minutes - 16.7 MB

Do Tories do Christmas? Surely think Father Christmas gives toys out to far too many children and why did anyone let that refugee family stay in a stable when its heated on expenses and wasn't for them? A last brief ParPolBro podcast of 2022 on Rishi Sunak's ant-strike legislation, Hunt letting bankers ruin things again and Labour just being, well, the worst. Pod times will return in '23!

Eat Less To Stop Putin

December 06, 2022 00:01 - 46 minutes - 42.7 MB

Thank goodness we now know a way we can stop Putin's terrible oppression of Ukraine. That's right everyone, we just have to eschew working rights, and never earn enough for eating or heating again. That'll stop him! You take that Russia, we'll be getting hypothermia over here to totally show you what's what! Nadhim Zahawi's weird ideas, everybody's (kung fu) striking and a chat with Phil Lindsey at the 4 Day Week Campaign about how we should all be working less. 4 DAY WEEK CAMPAIGN: https:...

Getting Rid Of Everyone

November 29, 2022 00:01 - 56 minutes - 51.8 MB

Net migration is at a record high, which is shocking as it means people still want to come to the UK even though you'd wait longer for an ambulance than to do interspace travel and colonise a planet we haven't ruined yet. Tories complaining about wind, Michelle Mone's pants PPE and the protests in China.

Staring Into An Imaginary Black Hole

November 22, 2022 00:01 - 56 minutes - 51.7 MB

Keep the politics out of football they say, something that is easy to do when the World Cup is in a country where they'll execute you for protesting. Still nothing more British than doing nothing about it, which is also how the Autumn Statement is tackling the economic crisis. Rishi Sunak's football wall chart, Swiss deals and who Keir Starmer's been kissing.

Bullies For You

November 15, 2022 00:01 - 50 minutes - 46.1 MB

Is there anyone in the cabinet that isn't a bully? Has Rishi Sunak hired them as protection or did he have to take them on or they'd flush his head down the loo? Budgets to fill an imaginary black hole, a new deal with France that already hasn't worked for four years and a chat with Dr Vinicius De Carvalho (@rennavmc) at the King's Brazil Institute (@kingsbrazil) about the recent Brazilian elections where they finally got rid of Bolsonaro.

Taking It Back To The 2010s

November 08, 2022 00:01 - 57 minutes - 52.6 MB

Austerity, blaming asylum seekers for everything and Peter Kay doing a live tour again where he'll no doubt check if anyone remembers his last one. Its all back to the 2010s but with the sad problem that we've already been through them so this is now worse as a result. Bullying Gavin Williamson, even worse Suella Braverman and COP27. Plus director of Progressive Economy Forum (@PEF_online) James Meadway (@meadwaj) on the state of the economy, again but you know, worse since a few weeks back ...

No Grown Ups In Charge Here, Sorry

November 01, 2022 00:01 - 1 hour - 70.8 MB

I suppose if we've always wanted the government to be more transparent, we can't be too upset that Suella Bravermen now wants to share her emails with everyone. It's impressive to get the sack from a job after 6 weeks, be back in it within 6 days and then be even worse at it, but our Home Secretary really does excel at being a truly terrible human being. All of that, Sunak's new cabinet, Brazil's new President and Dr Matt Winning (@mattwinning) on the climate crisis. CHECK MATT'S WEBSITE H...

Next Please

October 24, 2022 23:01 - 25 minutes - 23.4 MB

Prime Ministers of the United Kingdom are just like buses aren't they? You know you have one you don't want, wait 44 days and then there's another one you don't want. Er...yeah. Truss is out, Sunak is in. Different face, same terrifying consequences for the country, different weird monotone inability to talk publicly.

Who wants to be Chancellor today?

October 17, 2022 23:01 - 48 minutes - 44 MB

Will this podcast still be topical when it lands? Will it last past lunchtime? Jeremy Hunt is back and this time as Chancellor after the last one shorted his own career. All the PM's budget plans are scrapped and yet somehow she says she'll continued doing what she promised to even though none of that is left. Will she last the week? Will we?

We Are The Anti-Growth Coalition Society

October 10, 2022 23:01 - 57 minutes - 52.8 MB

Welcome to the Anti-Growth Coalition! Who else is in the club? Take a look around, its absolutely everyone except the Conservative Party, who weirdly aren't helping to grow anything so you think they'd want in, but they get very angry when we ask. Well some of them anyway. There are quite a few in that corner telling Grant Shapps to transcribe how much they hate Liz Truss.

Fool's Paradise

October 03, 2022 23:01 - 1 hour - 70.9 MB

It's Conservative Conference time which means all the worst opinions in the planet are in one place. And its all happening just after Liz Truss's and Kwasi Kwarteng's worst first weeks have become worst second and third weeks too, ending with a u-turn on a 45p.

Trickling Over Everyone

September 26, 2022 23:01 - 54 minutes - 49.7 MB

When is a budget not a budget? When its a mini-budget and also a massive economy crashing trashfire of policy. Kwasi Kwarteng has decided the best way to make sure everyone survives a cost of living crisis is to give more money to bankers and no one else, and the pound has responded by throwing itself off an economical cliff. All that plus Truss meets Biden, the Labour conference begins and a chat with Aditi Jehangir (@AditiJehangir) at Living Rent (@Living_Rent) about campaigning to get Sco...

Queens and Frackings

September 12, 2022 23:01 - 51 minutes - 47.6 MB

All change on perfectly normal island this week, with a new king and a new PM in just 48 hours. Obviously there is only one story and the entire world has stopped for 10 days including this podcast that contains zero comedy whatsoever out of respect, and therefore is exactly the same as all previous episodes.

September 05, 2022 23:01 - 1 hour - 58 MB

We have a new PM and yet again its absolutely no one that anyone other than the 160,000 worst people in the country would want anywhere near power. Welcome to the stage Liz Truss. No it's over here. No that's the way out. Oh well.

Race To The End

Boris Johnson has resigned as Prime Minister. Sort of. I mean he's still there but you know he's also sort of gone. And now instead we will have to see which of 11 of the very worst people in the world will take over and possibly be even worser than the absolute worst that was Johnson. We live in really really awful times. But hey, you gotta laugh right? A gags only episode that may or may not include a remake of Penny Mordant's awful campaign video.

July 04, 2022 23:01 - 1 hour - 58.7 MB

It, once again, seems that way and while Chris is pinching investigations are being carried out into 40 imaginary hospitals, rivers full of poo and the police being the worst.

Hot Union Member Summer

June 27, 2022 23:01 - 25 minutes - 23.5 MB

Its Hot Union Member Summer and everyone's on strike, but none of it is the government's responsibility because they know that increasing wages will just lead to inflation that's already happened while no one's had wage increases. Makes sense right? Meanwhile, in the US, the Supreme Court has reversed time by 50 years but sadly not in a way that allows anyone to take out the justices before they were born.

The Sue Gray Report is here, but sadly so is Boris Johnson still. What will it take for him to go? Maybe we need to follow in his Ministerial code changing footsteps and change the definition of Prime Minister so it means someone who gets in the sea.

Britain is now such a place where a boring man having a curry is somehow the equivalent to corruption, law breaking and doing an interview in a suit you just done a sick on. No the Labour leader isn't very interesting, or good, but our Prime Minister doesn't know who Lorraine Kelly is and you have to wonder if he'd pass a citizenship test. Or a breathalyser one.

The Chancellor Rishi Sunak says wants to help people so has announced a whole raft of measures that won't really help anyone.

The British government are continuing to do all they can to help with the situation in Ukraine, which this week involves saying Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy can get a 'sir' in front of his name if he likes and someone has to live with Michael Gove.

It is lucky that even when something so bad as the invasion of Ukraine happens, we have leaders like Boris Johnson who are doing everything they can and being as generous as possible. So that means he's told other countries to do stuff and we've taken in just 50 Ukrainian refugees. The backseat leader we all deserve.
