When will you go back to the interesting stuff? These lockdown files episode are just nonsense conspiracy theory and the lowest level of journalism. Please go back to the serious old school podcast!

Chopper succumbs to cooker conspiracy theories. Sad day indeed. Lockdowns weren’t pleasant but they saved millions of lives.

Very sorry to see Chopper go. I thought his analysis and knowledge of political history and interviewing style, putting his interviewees at ease, was superb. However I do not like the fact that the Telegraph now pinch all his podcast followers, keeping his logo on the podcast to force people to...Read full review »

radio 4 was my regular listen until COVID. From May 2020 my listening habits of a lifetime changed. COVID crystallised the BBCs clear bias and I’ve never returned to them (tv or radio). Instead The world of podcasts opened up including Choppers politics. Sorry to hear the final episode is next...Read full review »

I found Chopper during the height of the pandemic (when it was still called Chopper’s Brexit) and have never looked back. The level of conversation, exploration of issues, erudition of the host and guests is remarkable. Christopher Hope is a gentle, but determined, interviewer, never allowing his...Read full review »

The David David interview was full of criticism of how the government handled Covid. But where is the criticism and blaming of the man in charge- they blame “Whitehall” but Boris was in charge and seems as Teflon as Cameron and Osborne are about their dreadful cuts. Why can’t they be honest?...Read full review »

Listened to this for 12 months the presenter is a chump.. he loves that Charleston Boris Johnson and constantly snipes against the government and PM.. unless you are Nigel Farage… this podcast is not for you!

Terrible. Now Chopped

Christopher Hope consistently fails to extract anything of interest from his guests. Regardless of who they are, or their political background, he just asks open questions, allows them to assert anything they like without challenge, and then says ‘thanks for joining me’. Every week, that’s it.

Conducted by the politest journalist in politics!

The POW lady is exactly why nobody is going to vote for the tories. Wow ghe Pow lady is an unbelievable Caroline Lucas and why the party is dead

How Rebecca Pow’s complacency went so unchallenged puzzles me. UK is years behind re recycling bottles and cans. Get on with it! Similarly why are the water companies allowed to stuff their shareholder’s pockets whilst pumping raw sewage into our waterways. I bet the Red Lion’s pipes will need...Read full review »

O’Grady claiming sexism re the strike negotiations? Outrageous! But you did call that out to be fair…. I think you could be tougher on the general point. How about “Why should the army, on lower pay with no right to strike, spend their Xmas filling in for immigration staff?” “Why should police...Read full review »

It’s kind of pathetic listening to the round up of Tory governance over 2022, following fairly substantial support from the telegraph. (Liz Trus’s leadership) “initially seemed quite positive”. No it didn’t. It was obviously through the hustings, another case of shock and confusion to a well...Read full review »

I used to listen to this podcast regularly during 2019. My intention, as a Remainer, was to experience a contrasting point of view and to better understand the pro-Brexit perspective. After 5-6 months I found that I had to unsubscribe to this awful podcast. Chris Hope is little more than a...Read full review »

Great episode of the podcast as usual. However, this love affair with Johnson will not end well for the Conservatives. The party is so fundamentally divided about what it believes in it is essentially two parties. Some Tories are closer to the right of the Labour Party than they are to the right...Read full review »

These are incredibly tough times. There’s a war raging in Europe. There’s a cost of living crisis with families struggling to pay their energy bills. There’s a huge government debt which will take decades to pay off. And there’s the possibility of a return to violence in Northern Ireland as a...Read full review »

Interesting, engaging and informed. Great range of opinion formers. I look forward to each episode. Thank you

Why aren’t we hearing about farmers all over Europe having their land taken from them ? And The Bidens being so far up their necks in corruption it’s not funny , How do these people get away with all they do ? Ukraine and now we know why Ukraine won’t let the east have their independence, The...Read full review »

Really interesting to listen to two senior journalists talk about Nigel Farage. A complicated figure.

Better than the paper but still a strangely aged, white, male and narrow view of real life.
ipaul321 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/02/22
Always on the money with topical guests. Doesn’t mean I always agree with them! But great stuff thank you Telegraph
Dizdazdoz91214 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/28/22
I may not agree with everything said but I love the fact Chopper gives people of all persuasions the chance to speak, such a nice change from the usual shouty political offerings. Worth a listen.
PeggyLou1989 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/25/22
So disappointed Christopher with you and your fellow journalist just wanting some “juicy facts”like a couple of kids writing a sixth form newspaper. What about the things this prime minister has done for the country despite nearly dying of covid, he was back at his desk a month after being in...Read full review »

whilst i appreciate conservative views and their necessity in our political culture i think your guest this week should take a history lesson about trans people because they have existed for a long time. in addition, trans men are perfectly capable of accepting their feminity. as a trans man, i...Read full review »

A very good budget summary and analysis by Luck Fisher and team on one of the most progressive budgets I have seen for years. The Chancellor is obviously constrained at the moment by the affect of Covid and the balancing act he needs to do to get back to a more balancing economic playing...Read full review »

Fantastic podcast Chopper but alas your employers shameful treatment of Bob Moran has left me no choice but to cancel my paid subscription to The Telegraph and unfollow the various Telegraph podcasts. I hope there’s a change of heart and you reinstate Bob (and Julie Burchill) so I can in turn...Read full review »

Oliver Letwin proving that we are all better off with him being out of government, still less belonging to the Conservative party

Oh dear. I’ve just listened to your interview with Environment Minister. It sounded like edition of Gardeners World. I’m sure she’s well intentioned but what most people in this country are interested in is not the constant meddling with our cars petrol and boilers but securing our borders...Read full review »

Loads of vacuous Tory ministers with crap climate ideas and banning stuff. Quality of the pod has gone down massively recently.

Listening to arguments to build a new Britannia (ship) or whether the UK should lead a new mission in Afghanistan or even that it’s all Scotland’s fault, makes for delightful, delusional listening. Chopper’s a great host and interviewer, and provides an insight into those who don’t realize the...Read full review »

Had to stop listen after 10 minuets because of the stupidity coming from the guests and host.

Could have been good but they both need to talk less and listen more.

Vacuous
GoodPodTimes via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/08/21
Don’t come here looking for balance or thoughtful exchanges between the host and the guests - incredibly one-sided, in which the host allows guests freedom to speak without any attempt to challenge, correct or explore their view.

Just listened to Chopper’s interview with Baroness Jenkin. She was terribly erudite and humble on the issue of transgenderism. It’s good to make sure that all sides of the issue are represented. Taking off one star because I wouldn’t mind if it moved a bit faster.

Really Grest!
jincksi via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/23/21
A great insight into politics. It leans to the centre right but is at its best when Chopper has left wing guests who are always treated politely and with respect.
Ladiladida via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 07/23/21
Disappointed to hear you support gender nomination so readily. The effects on vulnerable women are truly terrible. The activists are destroying the lives of children and women alike in pursuit of their freakish propaganda.
