TRIGGERnometry · Live Reaction to Makerfield By-Election with Dan Hodges and Julia Hartley-Brewer · 19 Jun 2026 podcast

into oblivion when it comes to our energy policy, industrial policy, our inability to pay for defence.

It's a massive national security issue now, the net zero issue.

Anyone paying attention knows that that was always an insane policy.

It's a particularly insane policy, given the current global situation that we're in right now, threats from Russia, China... Can I just pick up on that?

Yeah, I mean, that's the thing.

And look, I want to make it very clear.

I like Andy Burnham.

He's a really nice bloke.

He's someone you can actually spend time with.

And I think his heart is probably in the right place.

I mean, all politicians are ambitious, aren't they?

But as you say, I don't think, and I'm not 100% sure right now we have anyone in any party that has both...

the view, the beliefs and the drive and the ability to push those through, but also to create the coalition, the wider coalition to make that happen in our very sort of, you know, His Majesty's government, the opposition dynamic we've got in parliament, because I think that is very, very difficult.

We do need, I mean, almost, you know, a national unity government to deal with all the big stuff, to say, look,

we all know and and frankly a lot of the sensible people in all of the political parties there are some that don't have many sensible people except that these are all the things that need to be done but they won't do them now if he is if he is as popular as dan believes he is if he really does have this charisma and this ability and that that can be enough and he's got this vision he does have a plan if that is all the case then he will do some of the things that you were just mentioning and i've been mentioning earlier in the podcast

And he'll be able to do them by saying to his backbenchers, look, I know we care about people on wealth.

We don't want to take anyone off wealth.

I know that we want to spend more on the NHS.

I know we want to do this and that.

And I know we care about the environment, but we need to do X, Y, and Z because this is what the country needs.
