Summary

This week's sponsor is the Disorder Podcast - listen here: https://linktr.ee/disorderpod Rishi Sunak disappoints again on the environment – the panel give their reaction to the delays he announced on key Net Zero deadlines. Plus, ‘Broken Britain’ is a phrase we’ve been hearing for a while but now it’s not just the left saying it. Is there a general consensus across all sides? And the online safety bill is still knocking around but it’s getting ever close to passing. Tech expert and founder of Fairvote UK, Kyle Taylor, joins the panel to discuss whether it’s fit for purpose. And in the extra bit for EVERYONE for one week only - we take a trip back to the noughties for a chat about pop culture, why was it so cruel and how did we let it happen?   “In Westminster, MPs seem to have the vibe at the moment that they’ve given up.” – Geri Scott. “Labour are going to come into a load of shit that they’re going to have to clean up, no money, schools are crumbling - there’s a lot to clean up.” – Geri Scott. “I don’t think Labour are doing a good enough job of priming the public on how big the mess is.” – Kyle Taylor. “Originally what we had was truly world leading… but the online safety bill has now become more about politics than policies.” – Kyle Taylor.
