Not 'politics weekly', Labour love-in weekly.
This podcast covered the election well, but it is simply too partisan and too far left-wing to abuse the title 'politics weekly'. This week's show took the biscuit: it offered an extended opportunity for one of the Labour leadership hopefuls, Andy Burnham, to set out his platform. The panel interviewers lapped it all up. Not one challenging question was put. Not one explanation or justification was demanded. No opposing views of other candidates were put. Ms Stratton only pushed her interviewee once. And then only to catch a confession soundbite. I know the Guardian leans left, but British politics deserves a fuller account than this unashamedly partisan podcast.Read full review »

Michael White is one of the best UK political commentators around, and this podcast accurately reflects his wit and half-cynical insider knowledge of the Westminster scene. Well worth listening to.

Cracking. Interesting and informed debrief of events of the week. No mock outrage, presented by humans who know what they're talking about. Ideal.Read full review »
