'THERE'S GOING TO BE CARNAGE' - with Scott Capurro
The ever so naughty Scott Capurro rejoined us this week (trigger alert for any Royal fans or menopausal women). We caught up on a tumultuous long weekend for the govt. From Rayner going to reshuffles and the return of flag nemesis Emily Thornberry. We also discuss Reform's conference and the surprise star in sequins. In the Patreon only we chat about the big marches in London this weekend and why the media might not be ready for what unfolds...

*BREAKING NEWS* - RAYNER RUCKUS & LINEHAN LOCKED UP
Could've done an episode every day this week! From Linehan getting nicked to the Rayner revelations it's felt like a lifetime since Monday. Also old slippery Starmer has been busy taking away power from Rachel, while she is kicking the budget down the road like me putting off a trip to the dump.

CAN ANYONE STOP REFORM? - with Andrew Doyle
Great show this week as Andrew returns to discuss another shock poll for Reform (aren't they all these days?). We also suggest that - following his recent social media update - Keir Starmer should never speak in public again. Then I ask Mr Doyle about life in the U.S and whether our apocalyptic perception of their politics is in any way accurate.

ANGELA 'THREE PADS' RAYNER - with Alun Cochrane
The excellently insightful Alun Cochrane joined me to ponder whether Angela Rayner is either very normal, or not as normal as she makes out. We also look ahead to Labour going back to school and whether they'll end up taxing luxury dogs. Then we contemplate why young women are moving to 'extreme' left wing politics.

In this week's breaking news I'm trying to work out how Keir 'Britain is Broken' Starmer can pivot to an 'everything's fine' narrative.. I also look at the phenomenon of English flags appearing and ask what the progressive can really say in response. Then it's a good old rant about Lewis Goodall's idea that we should have 100% inheritance tax.

In an overwhelmingly Lefty comedic landscape, right-leaning stand-up Geoff Norcott is a rare beast. In WMPT he gets to the heart of what ordinary people think about social and political issues. Whatever the contentious subject – he’ll be honest and blunt, but without being a dick. Mostly. Guests come from across the social and political divide, including, Romesh Ranganathan, Jonathan Pie, Katherine Ryan, Andrew Doyle, David Baddiel, Konstantin Kisin, Owen Jones and many more. Geoff has appeared on Live at the Apollo, Backstage with Katherine Ryan, Would I lie to You? Have I Got News For You? The Last Leg, Mash Report, Question Time, Mock the Week and pops up frequently on UK political debate programmes. Geoff's book 'Where Did I Go Right?' came out in 2021 and top the political comedy best-seller list on multiple occasions. Geoff also won an operational medal for his five tours performing to British troops in Afghanistan. "One of our most refreshingly funny comedians of any stripe." - Sunday Times "A Right laugh." - The Guardian*
