- We're back to the full compliment on this week's Pubcast and what a show it is.
Kicking off we get into the winners and losers of the Labour reshuffle and what it tells us to expect from a Starmer government.
Then, we get into the latest crisis impacting the government, the collapsing concrete impacting thousands of schools across the country, and how well the Education Secretary is dealing with it.
We're also chatting national service, after the Onward think tank brought out a proposal to get young people to plug gaps in our creaking public services to gain a sense of ✨purpose✨ and ✨community✨... for free.

I just love Ollie's desperation to have more than 45 seconds of serious conversation, and Ed and Ava's insistence that it will not happen. It's exactly like me trying to discuss politics with my mates.
Yeah, this one definitely got away from him :)
Could tell he'd given up when he was talking about Pat Mc wining at carnival

Recap by Tammy AI
nice recap! thanks for saving my time! Love it!
I'm not against the idea of community engagement in public services as part of societal education - walk a mile in a bin person's shoes and realise how important that job is! As long as it doesn't result in someone creaming all the profit off the top which it totally will, and that person will be a tory donor.
Makes my week. Every week.
everyone doing 1-2 years in hospitality would improve society so much...
This podcast is so chaotic and weird at times but I still enjoy it 🤣🤣
The chaos and the weirdness is the reason I enjoy it 😂
@@mdb3040 agreed, the topics that they discuss are unerringly depressing, so a bit of madness is necessary relief!
@@Jonnycrouch definitely!
The chaos is why I love it. Reminds me of my student days arguing the toss about politics and unrelated shit at the pub
"I'm professionally interested. Personally not so much." could go on a shirt. The latter part in smaller print.
Government responsee to RAAC has essentially been to say "we just took a shit and managed to get some of it in the bowl, why aren't we be praised to the hilt and why hasn't someone else turned up to clean up the stuff we didn't get in the bowl?"
Love this pudcast so much and it just gets better each episode. Keep up the great entertaining work everyone
SSRI’s are so difficult to come off once you’re on them, which means paying for lots and lots of support for these kids. My 15 and 19 year old nieces are both on them.
but they do not tell people about that and withdrawals,they are handed out like candy rather than offering alternative support and actually getting to root causes.They shouldn't be giving them to kids anyway and at least not without other support.Recommend Sam Timimi's Insane Medicine a child and adoslcent psychiatrist and Drop the Disorder a campaign group to challenge psychiatric labels and medicalisation of people's distress
This is in danger of taking over from ‘Oh God, What Now?’ as my favourite podcast.
Why's Oli wearing his PE kit to work?
He can’t go within 30 metres of a school…
I bloody love this pod 😂😂😂
My driving test waiting area was a portacabin 10 years ago, finally Staffordshire's ahead of the curve 😂
Great ep as always!
Straight after Novara. Lovely
Gillian Keegan 🤡
You say only geeks will have heard of P. McFadden, and that people watching may not know of him...... Do you think there's any non-geeks watching this show? Really! 😅😅😅
when it comes to eyebrows Pat McFadden's are the complete opposite to former Labour Chancellor of the Exchequer Dennis Healey's which are abnormally long.
So I’m here watching this blazed on my couch, tryna figure out how to get the best sound quality by cycling through the settings on my soundbar, and one of my button presses corresponded with the start of talking. The acronym(?) ‘AVA’ (Active Voice Amplifier) appeared on my soundbar as Ava simultaneously started talking, then it scrolled to ‘OFF’ exactly when she stopped 😂. Idk, just thought that was kinda funny :)
29:00 if the Sun put the concrete story on Page 3 and said "This is the only RAAC we're allowed to show you anymore' they could win the news for this year
What episode was Jonathan Ashworth on? Can't seem to find it.
Tell us the bankrupt and corrupt local authorities 🙏
This podcast is a roller coaster 🤣🤣🤣
oh my, oli's arms have a tremendous length
Thanks for the belly laughs xx
Where can we get tickets for the Liverpool pub cast ?
love podcasts hate nonsense is the politics joke podcast ladies and gentlemen
More Pat MacFadden content, please!
I do not see Starmer as the right of the centre. I would say it's the centre of right. Perhaps more right than centre.
Do we think brexit could have worked if it wasnt that gov ? Or a tory gov? Would it have worked with a labour gov? I think leaving the single market was ridiculous, but would there be any combination of factors that could have made it successful?
Nandy and Ashworth aren't remotely left leaning, both did everything they could to undermine the leader in 17 and 20
And complete lack of regulation concerning planning permission
Comparing Brentwood Schools with the ruins of Mariupol had me breathless holy shit
Shout out to Ed for supporting British watchmaking with that beautiful Solo *subscribes*
on antidepresants; i read somewhere that like a quarter of northern ireland is on them with that number increasing to about a third to 40% of women in specific age brackets
it's obviously Mental and not a good sign
THERES NO MENTAL HEALTH CARE IN THIS COUNTRY IF YOU ARE NOT VIOLENT it’s criminal for starmer to take that away
I have spent my childhood on waiting lists and in my adulthood had no help. Had to go private. Labour can crash and burn. We need a new left party
Labour can crash and burn whilst the Tories keep on governing this country into the sewers? That's what you want? You might say we need a new left party but they would need to be electable for them to be of any real relevance and the chances of that for a new party are remote. Also you need the wider electorate to care about a left party. The wider electorate tend to want a party who can listen to their immediate concerns and don't really care where that party stands on the political spectrum. Ideology never wins elections. Just wanting a party aligned to the left simply isn't enough and is no guarantee of success.
The 80% dragonboi lower thirds got me
"I see everything" except for clear water problems on barges 😅😅
Spit laughed at "bringing Raac back onto the front page"
Ava is on fire! Cap J Jokes!
Rather than national service, there should be a Government guarantee of a job for anyone under 21 that can’t get work or training.
There seems to be a distinct lack of alcohol being consumed in these recent pubcasts 🤔
This is basically the Andrew Marr show for millennials at this point
I think you'll find it's Kevin keegan
“Who’s got 2 thumbs and hates the proletariat” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 and all because he spoke about the possibly benefits of national service 🤣🤣🤣
start drinking again, it is far funnier. Not that i promote drinking haha.
43:09 C’mon, I realize you guys are on a budget but waving around a BIC Cristal pen that costs 10p (literally) is not a good look, especially for someone whose job involves _writing._ Why not invest in a relatively inexpensive “onscreen” pen (at least) for each of you like the Parker Jotter-they’re about £8-for something that looks relatively decent on camera. (If it’s good enough for James Bond, it’s probably good enough for onscreen in the Pubcast.)
This man has his priorities in order...
It's a pity Parky's passed on- he could have got you a Parker.
buy me a pen if you fancy mate
This comment is insane 💀
@jeff_w nailing the big issues! /s
Not accepting a calendar invite is so rude.
AWOOOGAAA!!
LICK. THE. STAMP!
LICK THE STAMP AND SEND IT!
⚔️
I have doubts about 2 mil turning up to notting hill tbh
💜🤠
I will say that NCS was severely underfunded and useless back when i did it. At least i was wearing the faded tshirt when i watched this 😂
Im so dejected from this reshuffle. I probably wont vote or vote green, labour are not getting any vote from me.
The Tory Party thanks you for your support.
@@tharoz6406 Haha so be it, in this country no one votes with conscience people like you are the problem. Nothing will change, we're not getting PR or electoral reform we're getting reheated blairism.
@tharoz6406 the red blue or yellow version?
@sethsergent9896 you know parties gravitate towards where they believe the votes are. If you think all the parties are looking pretty similar then that is, to an extent a reflection of society.
But in this case I was specifically referring to the party that has spent the last 13 years proving its incompetence and lack of interest in the needs of the people.
If you have one party you know sucks, and others you think may suck, but you fail to vote. Then you have only yourself to blame if the party you know sucks wins the next election and continues to screw you over.
What the hell is going on here😂
Hahaha. Screaming is funny /s
Hahaha when you can't imprison innocent people, just use pre- emptive sectioning.
Ava’s back 😊
Ava would eat herself if she was a bar of chocolate
I swear you lot get more unhinged with every episode
I have Lost all hope with the, Labour party, while Starmer is the leader, I will never vote for them.
Enjoy more Tory governments then.
Look Starmer is a Torie!
@@PaulEleftheriou-we7vr 🙄sure he is and nothing will change because you can 100% guarantee that as a fact, right? Well, nothing will change because people like you will condemn us to another five years of the actual corrupt Tories, this time legitimising their destruction of the economy and UK people's lives. Starmer is certainly not at all ideal but he certainly isn't the culture war, racist and corrupt Tories.
It has come out that while Labour was warned about reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (RAAC) in 1999, 2002 and 2007 and did nothing, the Conservatives began an audit of English schools in March last year and are still waiting for responses from five per cent of local education authorities. They will never be given the benefit of the doubt over something like this, because of the way they are perceived right now. The Westminster Government is way ahead of the rest of the world in terms of identifying this problem and remedying it, and is also ahead of the devolved administrations, like Wales, which are only now waking up to it.
I think it was mentioned in one of the news articles that it was known already in 1996 that building with RAAC are soon at the end of its lifespan.
Information on RAAC was literally withheld from the devolved administrations by the Westminster government.
Sunak also cut new schools and refurbishments to just 50 a year and haven't even reached that target. The Tories also watered down building regulations so even new build luxury houses aren't built to last. Also, if RAAC was known about in the 90's and as you say Labour did nothing, why didn't the Tories start doing something about it in 2010? Why wait until it is too late? Don't try to paint the Tories as the good guys.
@@joetrent4753 No. The Tories certainly aren't "the good guys". My point is that Labour should also shoulder some of the blame as some of this problem emerged on their watch.
@@dogglebird4430 But Labour had a schools rebuild scheme which would have meant we wouldn't have any collapsing schools now. The Tories in 2010 scrapped the scheme which would have rebult all RAAC schools by now. They scrapped a total of 735 rebuilds. At least 11 secondary schools with confirmed RAAC had proposed rebuilds scrapped when the Conservatives came into power a decade ago. Also we know how badly underfunded the education system has been under the Tories too. In light of this, the Tories doing an audit last year is just woeful and not anywhere near good enough. This is their mess due to total neglect and trying to pass the blame onto others.
Get Ashworths Wife on ... the massive racist 🤷♂️
At least this one isn't a sausage fest lol.
Sorry guys but I am not a fan of the shouty bit at the start.
Please stop the shouting clapping celebration at the beginning of each of these. Controlling the volume, the possible auto play is too disturbing and uncomfortable.
