Pod Save the UK · Just Stop Politics - 2024 Wrapped! w/ Desiree Burch and Liz Bates · 19 Dec 2024 podcast

This week, the Daily Star rejoiced in the headline, saying that Keir Starmer is the worst prime minister in recent history... according to Brits. Who else would it be according to? According to Brits. So it sounds like, you know, we have these rogue operators on the outside promising change.

And of course, when you scrutinise it, you know, that's not going to change anything unless making richer and poorer even more stark is the change you're looking for. But the fact remains, the people are not happy with Mr Starmer.

To close us off with something a little more silly, it's my favourite bit, the song bit, where politicians, we recap on how the politicians around the country have been using some songs to make their voices heard this year. So, for example, we had Paul Thomas candidate for a reform with his rendition of The Spice Girls.

So I was like, oh, I'm reading way too much political content.

And then I had another incident recently where I was listening to Beyonce's Irreplaceable, to the left, to the left. And you know, the chorus is, you must not know what I mean. I could get another you in a minute. And I thought, I was like, this is the song about Keir Starmer. Oh, my God.

I feel actually that's us as disenfranchised Labour voters. We're singing that to him. We could get another you in a minute. You'll be here in a minute. To the left.

She does, she does. But anyway, in the spirit of just far too much political content, in his final show of electoral spectacle for the year, Lib Dem leader Sir Ed Davey is vying for Christmas number one. He's performing alongside the Bath Philharmonic Young Carers Choir with their song Love Is Enough.

Pod Save the UK · Trump wins: where the hell do we go from here? w/ Katy Balls + Bell Ribeiro-Addy MP · 7 Nov 2024 podcast

Just one foot in front of the other. It's okay. It's just another four years.

Right. So not going to be okay then. Hi, this is Podsafe the UK. I'm Coco Kahn.

Yeah, I'm still in shock. I'm still processing. How are you feeling?

Yeah.

And Foreign Secretary David Lammy has ruled out transfers of cash to countries blighted by slavery across the British Empire. So what could reparations look like instead? We're joined by Labour MP Belle Ribeiro-Addy. So as we record, it's a cold, grey and miserable morning, which seems fitting given the context. As we record, the final victory has just been confirmed.

So congratulations for Donald Trump's victory are already rolling in from world leaders.

Yeah, I mean, I feel the same way. I'm also worried. I'm still very much in shock. Genuinely, I'm still blown away. Look, what I really hope doesn't happen now is that us as progressives or people who are interested in progressive ideas and really needed more than ever progressive thinking. are divided too much.

I hope we don't get the results come in about what groups voted for who and now we're all blaming the Muslims because they didn't get into line or we're all blaming black Americans because they had their reservations about the former prosecutor. I hope we can just have some soul searching as progressives and sort of say we are needed more than ever. What can we do?
