What Most People Think with Geoff Norcott

Jon Kogan joins me for a chat about Tory party conference and whether Kemi's big memo is an important intervention or just sounds like an R&B album. We look at the shadow front-bench and why they all seem like mortgage brokers. Next we chat about the fact York council have been spending money to remind parents to, well...parent. In the patron only section we respond to the Green Party's outlandish motion on Zionism passed at their party conference.

I had to get back on the mic after Andy Burnham walked into his first big scandal as he chose to come down on the side of (checks notes) the Saudi billionaires who helped fund his 'Manchester miracle'. Will the PM regret his over-keen backing of Man City? I also reflect on his speech which was apparently the greatest single piece of oratory in our time.

It was great to have Dominic Frisby on this week's episode as we looked at some of the tinkering policies being floated at the Labour conferences. Dom has an epic rant about the govt interfering in the housing market while I have a savage realisation about my equity. We then talk about an advert claiming obesity is a 'disease' and 'not your fault'. Not hard to predict where we both land on this

LOADS to catch up on this week. From Andy Burnham's white knuckle ride sitting next to Donald Trump to Tony 'Only Meeeee' Blair sticking his beak in on the EU, it's all been going off in the last few days. Not only that there's been some good old fashioned 'woke nonsense' at a lesbian bar and the BBC have been removing comedy (again).

The ever engaging Marcus Brigstocke returns and I'm keen to find out his view on the end of Starmer and the start of Burnham (his passing fondness for Keir is a genuinely edgy take). We look ahead to Labour conference and realise the fringe meetings might be very boring this year. Then we move onto Charles Vs Charles as the Royal / Diana drama enters its fifth decade. In the Patron only we both acknowledge that once men hit 50 the only genuine thing of interest is the Second World War.
