    Quiet Riot, Episode 4 - D-Day Dodger and The Tufton Street Posse
    Jun 12 2024
    This week, Alex Andreou, Naomi Smith and special guest, investigative journalist Peter Geoghegan discuss the Conservative manifesto and why everyone is treating it like a business document, rather than a work of fiction. They also look at the fall-out from Sunak's catastrophic D-Day decision. And in Part II they splash around in the murky waters of Conservative Party funding and its links with think tanks, looking EXCLUSIVELY at Peter Geoghegan's latest investigation. Plus, a SANE round-up of the European Parliament results. Subscribe to the podcast, like, review and rate us, and share the joyous news on social media.

  • Quiet Riot, Episode 3 - Truth finally catches up with politics

    Quiet Riot, Episode 3 - Truth finally catches up with politics
    Jun 6 2024
    Sunak is meant to have "won" the debate on Tuesday. So why has every Tory spokesperson had to spend the last two days defending him? Alex Andreou and Naomi Smith are joined on their new politics podcast by old friend Behind The Lines' Arthur Snell to talk through the debate fallout - and Farage's return. And in Part II we focus on foreign policy. How will Trump's felony conviction affect the US election? We talk EXCLUSIVELY to former UK ambassador to the US, Sir Kim Darroch, whose sacking Trump demanded. Arthur Snell takes us through developments in Ukraine and Gaza. And we ponder why foreign policy - including repairing the Brexit damage has been entirely absent from the campaign. All this and regular features Wokey Dokey, The Week's Politics in 60 Seconds (we fail miserably), and Poll The Other One, in which we dive into three huge MRP polls. Sir Kim Darroch on the Trump guilty verdicts: "I was actually on the M3 driving home when the news came through and I almost drove myself off the road."

    Quiet Riot - Sunday School: Am I Bovvered?
    Jun 2 2024
    Alex Andreou and Naomi Smith's on their new politics podcast do a little mop-up session to talk through how the second week of the election campaign has gone, explain the polls, look at the Abbott affair in retrospect and predict what will emerge next week. Produced by Kenny Campbell, in cahoots with Sandstone Global. "We hope to reach a community of listeners who want to take action - that crosses party lines. Because we think the fight that is coming - to push back the hate of populism, to say sharp elbows and stepping on minorities is not the only future - will require bridges to be built, all the way from left to right."
