Thorough, analytical, sensible journalism
I have been listening to this podcast since 2019, and it has become an essential staple in my current affairs diet. Lucy Fisher, like her predecessor Sebastian Payne, brilliantly leads and guides the discussion and analysis across the most pressing topics dominating Westminster and the UK’s political landscape. Lucy and her colleagues (often including George Parker, Robert Shrimsley, Stephen Bush, Miranda Green, Jim Pickard & Anna Gross; among other columnists and political analysts) expertly pick apart the issues of the week and cross-examine the political tactics, successes and failures of all political figures in the fray with impartiality, fairness and razor-sharp specificity. If you want to develop your understanding of not only the weeks events in UK politics, but also their implications, and the complex backdrops behind them, this is the podcast for you. It’s digestible, presented in a fun, diplomatic atmosphere; and is an example of how high quality journalism can be when it tackles the political state of affairs with only an agenda in the pursuit of analytical rigour and integrity.
