“Satire is dead."
As Liz Truss’s Popular Conservatism movement, known as PopCon, host a conference days after the general election, Tory peer Daniel Finkelstein says it’s “infuriating” and “an insult to other Conservatives”. Peter Mandelson wonders “who in their right mind” would support Suella Braverman, describing her as a “mean, carping, disloyal individual”.

If Danny thinks 2010 is worse than today then he is frankly delusional. 1. Debt was just over 1 trillion now pushing 3 trillion 2. Economy was growing, now it is stagnant. 3. NHS had its lowest waiting times now the NHS is in pieces. Add to that falling down schools and prisons and poo in our rivers. But if you think things now are better, sure they are pal, back to bed for you nurse will be along shortly.

That growth is still far, far below what it should be. Investor and consumer confidence were shattered. There seems to be a universal deficiency among conservatives in recognizing that government jobs are always a net positive. Someone making 60,000 a year then spends that on housing, groceries, transportation, entertainment, restaurants- the things that move your economy and pay people with private sector jobs to perform services. I have seen it estimated that every pound paid by the government is recycled 7 times on average before becoming frozen in something like a bond or savings account. As long as you can average 14.4% tax this means everything paid to government employees is budget neutral or even creates a surplus. Saving taxes to someone who makes 600k+ a year gets a fair chunk of that out of the economy to sit in investments or offshore accounts so it escapes the tax cycle. But the idea of "muh taxes" seems to preclude them from thinking about anything at all other than being made about it, no matter how illogical

The problem is that George Osborne had no economic experience and he is just a liar. There was no emergency in 2010. Alistair Darling's economic plan had us in recovery, budget surplus, by 2015 and we were on track for that in 2010 by the election. Osborne implemented additional, further, cuts that were not necessary and choked growth and stability. Rachel Reeves has buckets of economic experience.

The Tories have squandered vast amounts of public money on medicals for the disabled, back-to-work programs, universal credit, etc etc. They also pumped vast amounts of money into education reforms. None of which had much success. Moreover, if Labour start building council houses at cheaper rents than private landlords, it might shave billions off housing benefit. Plus if Labour is successful in taxing the energy companies that will free up billions currently being spent on rebates for extortionate gas bills, thus freeing up money to be spent somewhere else. The idea that the Tory Party are the frugal party is a total misnomer. On their own pet projects they have been spendthrifts,

Their are a number of Conservatives who have left the party because of its anti-immigrant stance as well as its BREXIT stance which seems to be the hardest BREXIT it could get away with. Those need to be brought back into the fold which means a move much more towards to centre. Its policies which split families up (because one was born on the wrong side of a border), the way that it wanted to ignore the law, which is the exact opposite of what the Conservatives used to describe itself. Chasing after the Reform/UKIP vote is precisely the opposite of what it should do and it needs to return to being the broad church it was which led to it leading this country more than any other in the post WWII years.

That paired with his own view, that nobody wants to hear from Conservatives right now, it seems extraordinary that he has said he will be competing with the Kardashians for airtime, because his forlorn view, post election, is that deposed politicians have to be seen, to get elected. The celebrity jungle certainly worked for Nigel Farage, who undoubtedly needed the money, not something Jacob seems to have to worry about.Yet he remains a staunch Braverman supporter.

The newly elected government has started in an energetic matter consulting regions & countries in the United Kingdom, consulting with European countries on a new post brexit arrangement. A new arrangement with Europe is essential if we wish to see a growing economy . More cooperation would mean less red tape for businesses dealing with Europe, more joint investment shared with EU and UK . The route is closer alignment but just short of being in the Single Market or Customs Union in respect of the Referendum result. Instead of freedom of movement, I recommend 'Priority Boarding ' budget airline style where we allow EU citizens priority for migration to people outside the EU.

one thing I will say about polly, isn't just a criticism of her, but of the entire team for letting it slide. when she took issue with saying "this isn't the worst economic situation since the Second World War?" maybe not for affluent, middle class political advisors and policy wonks. but wages have been flat for 40 years+, house prices are historic (absurdly so), rental is the only option, ergo more expensive than a mortgage, precluding the chance to enter the property ladder, a degree has never been worth less nor cost more, and when you factor in student debt, the average degree millennial is paying 50% of their salary to the government - more than Rishi. so yes, for the upcoming generation, never represented on this podcast, it is terrible economics.

I expect Hislop will continue running Private Eye as if the Conservatives are still the government of the country. He has a more anachronistic, 1950s idea of where power actually lies in Britain than Richard Ingrams had. Re-calibrating his priors to be able to satirise the people who have real power in 2024 is probably beyond him.

It's maybe because I hail from a country (Canada) that has rather more geography than Britain does, but I have NEVER understood how building homes for young families and badly needed immigrants became a political PROBLEM in the UK - and for your Tories in particular. Our Tories here (I'm one of them) are very much champions of homebuilding - home owners are natural Tories, after all - so much so that elected Tories at the provincial level are regularly criticised as being in the pockets of the residential construction sector... It looks to me like Labour there are positioning themselves as the party of and for the property owning middle classes - i.e. where the large majority of voters are in any wealthy country.

@@freebornjohn2687 That many such houses (especially medium-density housing near transport hubs outside urban cores and single-family housing in suburban areas beyond greenbelts) would be built in areas where Tories live - and typically tend to elect Tory MPs - is just as true in Canada as in the UK. Yet bringing more people into an area tends to drive up property values - not something your average property-owning Tory (or non-Tory, for that matter) in THIS country minds one bit! So what on earth is up with UK property owners (Tory or otherwise)???

Debt as a % of GDP in 2010 was 75%, today it's 85%, so Finkelstein is wrong when he says that Labour have just inherited a better fiscal situation that Cameron/Osborne did.

Finally the family can do a long awaited intervention for Liz truss . There are many mental health facilities that can deal with her insanity- with the right asylum and correct treatment - returning to a basic functioning reality within a year. I wish her best in her mental health journey back to reality. 回
