#10 - A Beer for Keir

Quite a while ago, long before his regime crumbled, I had some thoughts about what might happen after Boris Johnson. Trust in politicians is at an all time low, is there really a future for democracy in the UK without significant change?

Is Britain too bizarre for serious electoral reform? Is it a hopeless cause? Can the old British system change? Abby puts her case forward; Alex gets distracted by Conservatives and Alex gets bored

The NHS; I feel like, instead of treating us, we have to treat the NHS. What went wrong and is it maybe because we are more obsessed with the NHS than we are about health? Alex looking into the cult of the NHS while Alex looks into cows.

As the Chester By-Election pushes increasing pressure on Starmer's Labour party Alex dives into Tony Blair's legacy and current attempts to steer politics. Alex takes a step forward and talks about lobbying and why it's probably a force for good. Has anyone also noticed that Rejoining the EU is getting more attention?

With COP27 in full swing we look at who makes the best sort of campaigner for the most controversial and challenging topics like the environment. Are hippies the best people to be campaigning for the climate? Are you still a hippie if you wear a suit? Does Elon Musk actually matter?

Do we need a Churchill? Who would be the best Prime Minister? Alex talks about blogs that nobody reads and Alex asks the big question: who is the next leader?

Who would you rather have a drink with, Boris Johnson or Kier Starmer? Or perhaps you'd rather a night out with old Gove? Alex would rather a pint with Boris while Alex would rather just avoid the drugs.

Alex asks about the joy of campaigning for Rejoin and Alex suggest to change the name of the so called Progressive Alliance.

Alex appreciates a positive outcome of climate change and why Alex is jealous of missing an Erasmus semester in Moscow.

Alex measures political success and why Alex does not want to follow the road that started with Brexit.
