Summary

This isn't the dawning of a new era it's the same old pantomime but with the self serving pigs just sitting on different sides of the House.

I don't think that much will change but I'm willing to give Starmer a chance although its clear that Blair is back in charge isnt it?

What's really winding me up though are the so called polical pundits and their stupid sniping. In this podcast I really lay into these self righteous young pompous fools.

Hi. So is this the dawning of a new era? This is the dawn of a new era as the special sang,

0:08.7

although Terry Hall of course was slightly more in tune than me, or is it just more of the same?

0:14.8

Does the song remain the shame? Yes, we have a new government, Labor. And one could argue that actually what's happened

0:23.2

is that the Tories lost it, threw it away, rather than Labour won it. I think that's a bit

0:29.7

disingenuous. Their majority is huge. Yes, we could go on about the vote share and I think I did that

0:35.2

in a previous podcast. so I won't bother.

0:38.1

What I want to talk about now is how about giving them a chance?

0:42.1

I've been watching and listening to talk radio, the genre, not the particular station, and

0:47.8

watching GB News in particular and the BBC.

0:50.9

The BBC, they're delighted, I think, that Labour are in. You get that impression.

0:57.7

Whereas GB News have got faces like the smacked arses of teenage children. It's pathetic the way

1:05.8

they're behaving. They're looking for any glimmer where they can attack Starmer. And this also leads on to so-called political commentators doing the same.

1:15.6

Look, we live in a democracy.

1:18.5

Labor won.

1:20.1

Get over it.

1:21.3

Now you've got to give them the opportunity and the chance to see if their plans, if they've got any, will work or not.

1:29.6

Sniping from the sidelines even before they started just seems to me to be totally and

1:36.4

utterly ridiculous and childish. And I think the right of British politics are letting themselves

1:43.5

down. I mean, we've even had Lizzie Cundi. She used to be married, she's a wag. I think that's what they call them. She used to be married to Jason Cundi. I used to do talks about with him. They're divorced now, I think. But last time I saw her was one I was working on a thing called Fubar Radio, right?

2:03.2

And she was doing like showbiz and fashion.

2:09.1

But she's become, courtesy of GB News, a so-called political commentator.

2:16.2

And she's had a go at Angela Rainer and the trouser suit that she wore. But she didn't start it.
