political strategies

This week in 2010 saw the UK's first ever TV debate between the party leaders.

Campaign insiders Peter Mandelson, Polly Mackenzie and Daniel Finkelstein join Matt Chorley to remember the advice they gave at the time. Why did Tony Blair warn Peter not to talk up Nick Clegg's performance, why did David Cameron tell Danny he'd been nervous for the first time in his political life, and would they advise Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer to take part this time around?

The Biden administration celebrates 6,000 illegal border crossings a day as a “reduction” in immigration, the Supreme Court insists on the right of illegals to fake trans pronouns, and Pope Francis destroys “dog moms” with facts and logic.

Today on the Matt Walsh Show, sex ed curricula in public schools now include lessons on “porn literacy.” Also, Lindsey Graham proposed a federal abortion ban right before the midterms. I’ll tell you why, as a diehard pro-lifer, I do not support this move. Plus, Dr. Phil takes on the abortion issue. Jimmy Kimmel is finally accused of racism, but not because of all the blackface he’s done. And in our Daily Cancellation, we have our most creative attempt yet to solve the What Is A Woman riddle.
