Starmer saying "penis" and "vagina" was a gift to anyone making cassette boy style remixes...
"penis" and "vagina" shouldn't be heard on prime-time TV
If they don't just phone it in with AI
Holy smokes Laura. He came in thinking this was gonna be softball and you can see him change his tune quickly 😅 cracking questions.
Ava and Laura were exceptional this ep. Complete pros with a sprinkle of PolJoe silliness. The change in the SNP Campaign Director’s tone was hilarious, exceptional questioning, particularly Laura’s “parallels with the Tory fatigue” question.
Good to meet you Ava and Laura before the broadcast
Thank you for all the great and important work that you and the others do at politics Joe
Ava is a fucking class act when she's interviewing. She makes it look so easy.
This proves we need to see Laura on screen more 👏👏
please rinse Ben Hauchen and his cronies on the freeport stuff its genuinly depressing no one other than private eye is saying anything about it
I really enjoy it when Laura and Ava are on their own. Able to have a laugh but stay focused on the politics.

Audience question to Starmer we all needed: according to rumours your dad was a toolmaker? Can you confirm or deny? Excellent pre and post shows btw.
Followup question for the benefit of Ava: What is a toolmaker?
Ava is such a good journalist. She’s not only well across the detail, she’s also got her finger on the pulse. I hope this is the kind of journalism that starts to develop across the media.
Labour should attack the Tories for separating British families through their illegal and painful MIR of £29000-38600 annually, which would see 70% of British people unable to fall in love and start a family with someone who does not hold a British passport.
The disgusting line that people coming here ‘should be able to support their families without accessing public funds’ when spouses of British nationals are not eligible for any benefits and pay through the nose for NHS care and visa fees, while being taxed like anyone else on their earning.
It’s outrageous that no one in the media is picking this up as an issue, when British children are being torn away from the parents by this policy.
Why is that disgusting? Why shouldn't people who come to the UK have some financial security prior to entering the country? The UK isn't a charity, we have to have some level of self interest to make our society affordable, do we not?
If only British people had some security....
Setting the threshold above 'minimum wage' is nothing more than class warfare.
@@PorthLlwyd Think about it better.
@@ArtyFactual_Intelligence clearly I don't have the intelligence to "think about it better".
@@PorthLlwyd So what you are saying is that people who earn less than £29000 per year are not financially secure? So I guess you also include British Citizens who earn less than that as being financially unstable, right? Or do you not care about the financially stability of those people, just immigrants, yes?
I love the bits where Ava is coaching Laura live on air ❤
Badass on the all Scots segment 👏 he seemed disarmed then dismantled 😂
FFS Olly, new mikes now!
SNP manager gave me such bad vibes..... Felt like he thought he could intimidate Laura - didnt work though did it 😂
Starmers "tough choice": Tax the Rich or take poor kids out of poverty and help young people own a home 🤔
Yea a real Sophie's choice there, isnt it?
It never ceases to amaze me the amount of politicians who go into interviews advocating we’re going to do this and we’re going to do that and then as soon as they get asked the most obvious question of how much is that going to cost it’s I don’t know I don’t have those figures to hand. Imagine trying to run a business like that
Dgmw, when it's the whole gang, i love it, and dudes rock is good fun; but the vibes are so nice when it's Laura and Ava
This is why when we talk about tax breaks or the likes for business we should refer to it as "corporate welfare" then there's a better narrative in raising taxes
Is laura really small or is ava a mountain?
Yes
This much better than the usual podcast …!
I know it’s partly my age, at 62 but do find the usual round table with Ollie, and or Ava & Ed, gets annoying. This is much better, though enjoy the one to one interviews with Ollie, they’re excellent 😅
Yeah the banter can be fun but Ollie, Joe can be serious journalists and I like to see it. Ava is the best journalist though and is often calming those silly boys down😊
Sunak would not have lasted another ten minutes. He was steadily losing it.
There seems to be issues with your microphones, noticed on the previous piece, prior to the post talk.
Why didn’t you swap positions when interviewing her? 😂 Got to listen to the whole interview whilst staring at the back of her head 😆😆😆
I know she reads these comments and that HAS to hurt…
10:37 Keir gave a what?!
Using the words 'minutiae' and 'penis' in the same sentence is ballsy but somehow Ava managed to pull it off.
The lightbulb is called incandescent
Yeah, I wouldn’t exactly call Rishi Sunak “incandescent” lol
Today Starmer linked fees to waiting lists to belittle the woman that asked the question.
You need an awake audio engineer.
Ah, not just me & being an older woman 😂
I dont think it’s adding heat to a debate to say there is a biological definition for gender but that doesn’t affect someone’s personal or psychological alignment to that biology?? I mean I’m fully supportive of people’s rights to live freely with respect and dignity… but we can’t just deny biological facts! Or suggest that doing so is ‘adding heat to the the debate’
Ive never heard Ava so quiet 😂
sex and gender are NOT the same thing. There are 2 sex's but Gender can be fluid and is connected to personal identity.
The 'phobes are at it again
@ILikedGooglePlus how did you come to that conclusion? Just because i stated that people can confuse the two, and I've shown I'm not against gender fluidity via said statement... your just trying to drum up hate and provide nothing else.
"We believe our policies are fully costed." Are they developing these through prayer and fasting?
How can you not know the amount your maintenance loan will be. "I'll have to check the figures" c'mon
Ehh as a politician, you have to know a lot of figures, and you don’t want to risk giving an incorrect figure, so I do get it
Once again SNP knocked it out the park. Largely English electorate in the audience gave John Swinney multiple applause, why? Because he highlighted the issues, decisions and policies of the past 14 yr and adopted by the Labour Party are hurting all of the UK and will continue to do so. I guess that’ll be acceptable to the English and Welsh electorate, but Scotland won’t vote for it and so only right that our ultimate destination is an independent Scotland 🏴
I think you are seeing what you want to see tbh.
@@davecross4493 measure the applause from the audience
@@davecross4493SNP are far from the perfect party, and sure there might be a bit of posturing from OP, but seriously who else do you want us to vote? They act and speak in Scotland’s best interest over every other party in Scotland by a mile despite their embarrassments
9:10 not contradictory to separate sex and gender. Conflating them has been the problem. Starmer showed great respect and care for transgender people. Gender is in the word trans*gender*.
Having an area of expertise is a pre-requisite to be a technocrat. Even being an expert in a different field of endeavor allows some insight in the standing of those who claim expertise in other area's. If a technocrat and a toolmaker had a baby the result would be Starmer, he is a prototype technocrat.
Little Rishi Sunak, the sad wet hen, is the total opposite of a technocrat. Gambling with other people's money requires no expertise. He has no skills or accomplishments. You see this reflected in his advisors, they are obviously unfit and incompetent, yet Little Rishi lacks the base competency to judge their unfitness for their job.
I’ve given it some consideration and I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m definitely in love with Laura
I've come here for Ava.. I think I've found a new hobby.. Well.. That and expensive wine.. 🍷
Don't call it "Gender Ideology" Ava. It's just gender 🏳️⚧️🙏
But different people have differing options on gender and therefore have their own ideals for what it should look like. Ideology is an appropriate word for that.
@@PorthLlwydPersonally, I think “theory” would be a better word to use in the context considering the connotations of “ideology” and the way it’s commonly used, but even “gender theory” is used in a denigratory fashion so it really is a minefield
Ideology is a system of ideas and ideals, which isn't what gender is.
The best way to explain why Gender isn't considered black and white:
every human isn't burly lumberjacks and barbie girls and how you dress isn't dictated by your sex.
I'm sure there's a legitimate reason for it but if I was talking to Laura I would just wander off if she asked a question then started reading her phone.
I was thinking the exact same thing 😮
Next time can u ask the Labour and Lib Dem representative how their progressive policies differ from those in Canada and USA under Trudeau and Biden. Do we want to repeat the same mistakes in the UK? The cost of living crisis in Canada is horrendous, one reason being taxing fossil fuels to increase food production costs. And Labour want to tax raise taxes on oil and gas producers....
OBVIOUSLY IF YOU VOTED BREXIT VOTE REFORM!
IF YOU ARE WORKING CLASS - VOTE REFORM!
IF YOU ARE UNDER 24 VOTE REFORM!
IF YOU CARE ABOUT UK DEFENCE - DON’T VOTE LABOUR! VOTE FOR ANYONE BUT LABOUR!!!
Pointless voting reform because he just lies. Where is the millions for the NHS oh that's right just like Boris hi lied
The undeniable truth is that everything is getting busier, more traffic on the roads, more queues in the shops, more overflowing bins. Have you seen Bournemouth beach recently on a sunny day,? good luck finding a parking space that's all I can say. It doesn't take a genius to realise that quality of life is going down for the majority of people as the population reaches new heights literally day by day. It actually isn't mentioned enough that we are a relatively small country with a large population relative to size already. Do we really want less countryside and wild places as more and more houses, hospitals, roads etc need to be built in our constant attempts to keep up with mass immigration only for more people to come in the following year all over again. The UK already has the highest population it has ever had in its entire history, if you have kids that will grow up here you should be concerned about this. Vote Reform!
Not into half baked theories and fascism - call me old fashioned…
Vote for reform, the company headed by the guy who sold you brexit, the main cause of the massive spike upwards in net migration.
More traffic on the roads is because cars are getting bigger and public transport being in a shoddy state.
More queues in shops are due to understaffing, higher reliance on automated machines and general bigger shopping trips.
Overflowing bins is due to underfunded waste management.
Nearly all beaches are busy on sunny days, no one is in the water from the sewage though.
Reform's "contract" manifesto is all over the place too.
it wants small government while having half public ownership of utility companies.
It parades independence while ditching net-zero, the thing that would ensure energy independence from the global markets. (Not mentioning how climate change is what is driving up famine and thus migration)
It's designed literally so certain parts can be shown to certain people, but when read together is an absolute mess.
But it's not like the company membership had any say in this "contract" anyway.
@@traptastic4864Population growth is bad. It means you have to increase house building, that means less and less green space for wildlife and food production. Do you have your own limit?
When people parrot the line that "it's an aging population, we need to increase our population" they are clueless. The problem becomes perpetual. if we need more care staff, employ more care staff from within. We have so many unnecessary jobs in this country, one example would be delivery drivers, another would be photographers at downing street when announcements are made (40 people from the same angle all taking the same images, it's ridiculous).
@@PorthLlwyd
My point is the first solution to lower net migration proposed by him spiked migration upwards.
It's like hiring a plumber to fix a leaky sink, he floods your bathroom and calls the job done. He now offers to comes back to fix your leaky sink while the bathroom is flooded with water.
Or calling in the tories to fix the spike in food prices.
And if housing is the issue how about instead forcefully selling vacant and second+ homes?
Between 6-8% of all housing in England and Wales is unoccupied. (ONS) So you'd free up a massive amount of housing doing that without the need to build new housing.
I thought the most amazing moment was when the Rishi bot finally broke. It was the question about the gambling. He showed an actual emotion and looked genuinely angry. He's utterly broken.
