Hello everybody and welcome to rock and roll politics, the podcast with me, Steve Richards.

Thank you for tuning in wherever you are.

And as ever, we've got a lot to cram in together.

But I'm going to a little kind of notice before our more familiar notices.

Because we did last week the Michael Heseltine interview, we didn't have time for questions.

And there have been so many brilliant questions.

And they've carried on pouring in over that Witt half term.

Or what is it, Witson, Witt half term, that I've decided this week we're going to have two rock and roll politics podcasts. I've got

lots to reflect on, if that's okay with you. So I'll do a reflection today and a reflection

for a podcast coming out on Thursday. And there will be then a chance to have questions in both of them

because there have been so many really interesting, provocative,

the wrong word, thought-provoking emails,

I want to get to as many as I possibly can.

And if we do it all in one go, we'll all go insane.

And even those of you running up Arthur's seat and continuing for another 24 miles,

the podcast would not have been finished.

So we're going to go and have two.

So do subscribe and tell your friends and family to subscribe.

And then it will pop up.

So we've got time to get through as many questions as possible.

And as I said, I've got a couple of reflections, which I want to delve deep with you this week.

And then, yeah, that's what we're going to do.
