Hearing you talk about the millions marching in 2003 and being ignored by the government I realised something that I’ve known all along but not made that specific connection. The same people are in power now as were in 2003. Whoever else more widely gives Starmer his orders, his immediate controllers are Blair and Mandelson
Fascinating to hear about Talals incredible father Mustapha Karkouti. I remember the seige but knew little about it. Don't agree with Ben Macintyres world view that came through. There are villains in this world and not being formally educated doesn’t mean your not intelligent etc etc.
Incredible, a genuine privilege to hear Talal talk about his dad.
😊
Completely amazing.
For me an education, I remember watching it on TV live.
My favourite podcast by a country mile.
Respect.
Wow! Absolutely fascinating. Thanks to all involved - especially Talal.
Very kind. Thank you ☺️

1:21:34 neither. Farage was kingmaker both times. Tories won because he pulled out labour won because he stayed in.
Awful, but true.
