Hey guys, Rory Stewart is no longer a Tory MP, but presents a brilliant podcast (The Rest is Politics) with Alastair Campbell (who worked closely with Tony Blair). I’m a labour supporter, but Rory is an extremely intelligent, thoughtful and measured conservative commentator who has long detested Johnson.
Rory would actually be a very good prime minister were it not for the fact (utterly irrelevant but hey, we live with the media madness) he looks like Wallace from Wallace & Grommit, so is for ever unelectable. Even in the UK. Such a shame - I am not a Tory but Rory spits facts day in day out.
Saw him on LBC yesterday or earlier today and yeah he seemed pretty exhausted but was still insightful while being bluntly honest about what BoJangles is doing to the UK/Tory party. Started paying attention to UK politics around Brexit but didn't start following closely until I realized how insidious the populism and austerity had gotten - not to mention the similarities to what has been going on here in the States. Some silly republicans of the never Trumper variety were joking that "at least they wont have to worry about him summoning a mob and storming the parliament or Buckingham" and I was like, ehhhh idk guys, while it probably wouldnt be nearly as destructive or dramatic, he's reckless. I didnt seriously consider something Jan 6th like happening though until he sacked Gove. That's when I went "oh sht hes reached panicking yet deluding himself cornered animal levels of desperation" Anyway hopefully the Tories keep the spine they found and make sure he really does leave. They have plenty of time to get the wallpaper off the walls at least 😆
@@maejohl Agreed. I think he's brilliant, but it has to be said he has the sort of face that a satirical cartoonist would draw as the stereotypical posh Brit.
When the story came out that he was resigning, I silently hoped for an extra episode, and here it is! Thank you. But I guess if you guys waited till Friday morning then the tragic death of Abe could also be covered. Hopefully in the next episode. Thanks again!
What's always good about crooked is, it's a full explanatory interview type program. Not just the quicky segments other utube analyst give. You don't just get a quick headline or opinion, it's totally explained and broken down. So we know more of the history of an event or happening. Thanks all,👍
This shows how isolationism is bad-bad in that it doesn’t work-for a country and its economy. Let’s hope those in US who want US to be isolated recognize this and stop advocating for isolationism.
If you haven’t see the footage of the Tory MP giving an interview to Sky News outside the Houses of Parliament, whilst protesters blare out the theme music from Benny Hill, find it, it’s pure gold.
A special Pod Save the World, and you still just missed the assassination of Shinzo Abe. Truly horrific, can't wait to hear your thoughts on it and maybe a broader discussion about increased political violence around the world.
I didn't agree with PM Abe on a number of things (mainly his involvement with a political group that gets off on flipping the bird to Korea and China by worshiping war criminals at Yasukuni), but seeing him assassinated leaves me sad and disappointed. The perpetrator was a former sailor in the maritime JSDF, and he thought Abe was a member of an organization no one's heard of-- possible radicalization via conspiracy theory, mixed with "middle aged man with undiagnosed disorders and knowledge of deadly weapons of war". The military/police in Japan have historically had a serious problem with radicalization and violence, and yet these are the ones with the most severe symptoms of Japan's societal problem that involves abuse, bullying, and ostracism. Best case scenario, they'll start taking a comprehensive and holistic approach to the problem. But they'll probably hang the perpetrator, beef up security at stump speeches, and consider the matter closed. Few things stymie progress more than the Japanese question, "If we change something fundamentally, who's gonna take responsibility if it all goes wrong?"
@@TihetrisWeathersby Eating 2 shotgun shells will do that. I am surprised they tried to save him for that long and used up so much.100 Units of blood, near 50 litres.
Please get Kevin Rudd (former Australian PM) on to talk about all of this, Labor’s new government in Australia, and the cancer that is the Murdoch press in the US, UK and Australia. He is a wonk and a nerd, but he’s the real deal.
I'm a huge fan but would say the question to Lammy about a written constitution as a weakness in the British political system falls into the American exceptionalism trait. The idea 'lets write it down!' fixes things when we see that actually it has contributed to some of the worst problems within the house, senate and therefore supreme court resulting in a originalism being a possible outcome
I liked hearing from MP Lammy! I like how he made a point that behind the populism there was no plan. I think he is right that we progressives need to work on our language and rhetoric to be clear that we are working with everyone on bread and butter issues.
Not that simple. I don't vote conservative anymore because they don't operate in the interests of the public, but they can't be blamed for Brexit going poorly. That title goes to the other parties (very much including labour) that stymied any progress on talks with the EU for the first year and a half by not allowing the government to enact corresponding legislation. That's why the Tories got a massive majority after the latest election, because they were clearly the only party which had any interest in even trying to get Brexit done, and the public could clearly see what the other parties were really doing.
What makes me really angry is, these people will NEVER have to take responsibility. They‘re always lucky… Yep, everybody said the UK will suffer economically for leaving the EU. And now they are suffering and they will be suffering. However, we have a GLOBAL economic crisis! Yes, the UK will do a lot worse than everybody else, because of Brexit, but the Brexiters will now have an excuse, where they can say they are just doing poorly because of the global state of things. They ALWAYS find excuses.
A lot of the ordinary UK folk who think Boris is a wonderful hero for them would do well to listen to this Pod - they might learn a thing or two about their own country (I am a Brit and sometimes I despair at the lack of awareness here) thanks Tommy and Ben 🙌
As a Brit I couldn't be happier he was forced to resign. Although many of his cabinet Staff were enablers to him during his tenure. Boris needs to go now! I would prefer a general election but my fear is the conservative party will elect someone who was part of Boris's team. I don't think they have the guts to hand it over to the British public. Love your podcast & I'm enjoying the Jan 6th commentary.
Lovely to see our Lammy on Pod Save the World! Steve Bray playing the Benny HIll theme song as Boris was giving his 'farewell speech' was Peak British at it's savage best - nothing will top that! Except for the fact that Hugh Grant requested it! Like 45, he had to be dragged kicking and screaming to leave - although he's still squatting at No.10. And everything that Johnson does is with cynical self-interest, including Johnson's relationship with Zolensky, desperately syphoning that reflected glory off a man who's a real hero to his people. Johnson thought he was Churchill, ended up being Chamberlain and has now earned the moniker of the worst Prime Minister in UK history!
I didn't watch this at the time because I was pretty glued to the UK news. Given the current Boris scandals its popped up as a suggestion. Really great and insightful episode. I did want to curl up in a ball though when Liz Truss's name came up haha.
For a good catharsis on Boris I love Jonathan Pie's video Bye Bye Boris. Here on YT. You can watch the flywheel really get spinning--it's an epic rant.
I find the PSA / Labour Party link fascinating as the Democratic Party have far more in common with the Conservative party. The American left is way further right on the whole the the British left.
Thank you for mentioning we here in Australia where we have rid our country of Murdoch and the most right wing religious nut job government in our history. We now have a Government implementing a independent criminal investigation into the crimes and damage perpetrated by the LNP and Murdoch. Your comment that we are a center left government is somewhat right. All of our MP'S are devotees of Hawke and Keating Who themselves were inspired by Chifley. So while we may talk as centre left we have always be left leaning and always will be.
Much as I deplore Boris Johnson's pathological mendacity, and am relieved that he has finally resigned, it should not be forgotten that his path to power was in many ways facilitated by more than a decade in which the opposition, under two leaders, never looked like a credible party of government. For all David Lamy's fine words, I remain to be convinced that Keir Starmer has a firm control over his party, and can offer the country a credible alternative to the Tories. Which is pretty disappointing, given how royally they've fucked us all over.
David Lammy is great and all but the Labour Party is its own worst enemy. Britain doesn’t have a two party system but Labour refuse to work with anybody else and want to prop up FPTP. We can have a better system but the only way to do that is if progressive parties work together to beat back the tories and change the system so they can never have this sort of stranglehold on parliament again
@@nomadpurple6154 it failed because it had no backing. Granted a big part of that is those right wing tabloid oligopolies but when the labour party refuses to back functional elections then of course the referendum isn’t going to work out
I feel a sudden urge to explain to you about the Welsh Secretary “whatever the hell that guy does” - well as it turns out he was a barely competent goon who, aside from sniping at Labour and vigorously defending BJ, seemed to do virtually nothing. In any case, Wales has its own parliament and government and so thankfully had no need for Mr Hart
Guys I appreciate that wales may not be on your radar but the welsh secretary is the secretary for wales (he’s still a Tory and it doesn’t matter cause wales has its own government) but just a note to say that wales is also important and the UK is not a country and Wales Scotland and England all vote very differently
Sorta weird to wake up to the news of Shinzo Abe's assassination and then watch a podcast with a very giddy Ben and Tommy. Maybe you could have spliced something in about Japan?
It's not that the center left is doing great worldwide: What is going on is that pretty much every party in power is getting battered by global conditions, and the center left was rarely in power. Look instead at the places where the center left was in power: the US and Spain. You already know how tough a road for the elections looks like in the US, and only supreme court craziness might slow this down. the Spanish government just got battered in the Andalusia state election: a state they had won in EVERY ELECTION since 1977. So what we should just interpret is that the headwinds for incumbents are about as strong as in the financial crisis.

@@tweda4 As a Brit I was maybe a bit too excited at the time. It's still gonna be tough time for Conservatives though to unite the party and keep the different interests contained.
@@antonyslack1 true, and I would be very surprised if the cons get another majority at the next election. Even despite the cons being the regular majority, I think they've made enough mistakes this time to lose alot of support.
@@tweda4 I totally agree with you I don't know if Labour will win a majority we need more than 100 seats that would be monumental. I think we can get about 300ish we will be able to work with the Liberals and others and dare them to vote us down. It's gonna be really tough over the next few years and maybe even a decade but I think Starmer is gonna be PM for at least a term or two.
Peter Dutton, the leader of the Liberal Party in Australia (and a truly terrible human being) is in the US on holidays, says he’s going to attend something called the US Leadership Dialogue. There are rumours here that he’s also going to be meeting MAGA & NRA people. Any knowledge on this?
Who’s that fella that was shot 60 times by the police? Doesn’t matter. what I want to say, it’s too bad that didn’t happen in Polk Country Florida. Reporter would ask our Sheriff, “why did your officers shoot the suspect 60 times?” Our Sheriff Grady Judd would reply, “because that’s all the bullets they had.” 😂😂😂
Because it seems the republicans (excuse me, Tories) embrace men who are accused of sexual assault. That used to be the best way to be driven out by your own party but now they embrace them. It’s as predictable as it is despicable
hey wait a minute... are we talking about trump or bo-jo. 'WE'RE WITH HIM AS LONG AS HE'S WINNING'? refer to your first fifteen minutes. this is the upside down... and now the question is WILL HE GO?
I subscribe too see the "rot" in real time. Boring may have appeared a Bozo but our elected officials are a mirror of our society and culture at large to see gleeful commentary on a leader going down is not in anyway a solution to any of the dissolution of western society. Meritocracy or bust.
David Lammy is one of our best, fantastic to see him here. Great pod as always, thank you.

Lammy has such a beautiful accent to really run points home with. 👀👏
Boris's demise is probably good for a 2 or 3% reduction in the yes vote in Scotland , which could be enough to stymie Mrs Murrell.
Personally I think the continuing fallout from Brexit actually helps highlight the nonsense of "make all your dreams come true with 'indy' "
I loved Tommy saying,"Maybe you should just skip ahead of all the b*llsh*t we just did, and get straight to the interview." 😂

'...and he's still in the f**king building'
...in Britain they elect Parties...not Leaders...
