- Labour MP Jess Phillips is back with Beth and Ruth to un-pick the election results.
On this episode they discuss how Jess was heckled when she narrowly held her seat of Birmingham Yardley.
They also look at the wider Labour results and talk about Rishi Sunak’s resignation speech, as well as discussing why Reform and the Liberal Democrats took seats from the two main parties.
In response to this episode, the Workers Party of Britain said:
"Labour are on their way out in Birmingham, because of their betrayal of ordinary people.
"We will keep banging the drum and rid Labour from this great city."

"Get it fcuking done" -- Jess Phillips
Finally, a Labour party member admits that they have no control or say over the situation in Gaza! I'm shocked by this statement of truth!
It should be common sense in reality. We are no longer in control of an empire, our parliament has little impact on decisions in other countries.
Ruth says she couldn't have done a speech if she went through what Jess did, but if the other option is Trussing it out the back door, I think she would stand and fight
Absolutely. Truss is an absolute disgrace of politicians and her loss couldn't have happened to a worse person.

I don’t always agree with Jess Philips’ politics, but by god she has principles and she sticks by them. She took those hecklers head on at the election and more power to her. This is an MP that has championed women’s rights unfailingly, but still a few idiots try to silence her because they disagree with her party on one issue. Total disgrace, the country would be so much better if we had more MPs like her. We need MPs who champion real causes and speak truth to power. Respect to her.
Take a look at The News Agents' episode from earlier this week about Jess Philips' neighbouring seat, Birmingham Ladywood, and Mr Yakoub who ran there - he's made some terrifying comments about domestic violence and women's rights...
@@alexharrison2743 Yes, Islamic extremists tend to do that. Blame Labour for encouraging them in, and the Conservatives for continuing the trend.
@@narcosniper78 we end up with people voting for these candidates who would rail against Reform for being right wing while the workers party consider woman to be second class citizens and would outlaw LGBTQ+ people
100%, Well said. It was horrible viewing. Birmingham has REAL issues...
@@alexharrison2743 yup and we have idealistic 18 year olds voting for them ignoring all the red flags because Gazza, people that march in Pride parades and at the same time wave Hamas flags
I am so proud that Jess was returned as the representative MP for her constituents/constituency.
She is a textbook example of what an MP should be: has a deep experience of serving her local community; has a deep experience of public service; didn’t get into politics for self-promotion and; is truly committed to improving her community and wider society.
Well done, Jess. And continued well done to Beth, Jess & Ruth for this alternative platform of opinions.
Totally agree. It would be so sad for the country to lose an MP like Jess Philips.
Absolutely agree! I always like my MPs to laugh at the idea of male suicide being discussed in parliament and then saying she would "knife a fellow MP in the front". Top quality person.
The “Hareeeebos” caught me off guard. Also, Angela Rayner saying “it’s got a fridge” tickled me. Great episode and congratulations to Jess! Well done to all the labour family!
Glad to have (still an MP) Jess Phillips back.
mine
What Jess had to endure at the hands of Galloways mob is beyond disgusting
yeah Jody McIntyre is such a horrible candidate, look at his views love how some people on the left are just so blind sometimes
the only reason George Galloway supports any cause is because it pisses off the americans. this is a man who supported Saddam Hussein for crying out loud.
and she resigned from shadow cabinet for them in protest as starmer would not call out isreal for a ceasefire in gaza which he then did a few weeks later
Islam's gonna Islam
Labour will not call this out for what it is and its only cause its the Muslim vote if it was white men Jess and all the looney lefts would be calling this out 24/7 right wing
Love it how @benmarshall5235 calls them the Galloways mob no Ben they are Muslim , try to keep up
Jess' victory speech was fabulous. Well done for calling them out.
The way jess was treated was completely unacceptable at the count and procedures should be in place to prevent such a thing to happen again. Extremism of any kind, left, right and up and down, has no place in the UK.
I watched Sky overnight. I don't think Beth got enough airtime! I kept thinking, what does Beth think?!
Yes…. the band is back together!!!!! 🤷🏼♂️ 👀 now if this podcast was video and audio it would be the best thing British has produced since Gavin and Stacy 😂💙 please 🙏🏽
Love ya Jess. Keep strong.
Fantastic work. Followed Beth and Ruth from a small cottage in Sweden during the night and until 7 in morning here (we're an hour earlier here) and it was a joy to watch.
Brilliant show, congrats Jess. X
Found this podcast by accident, never miss an episode now.
phew just made it Jess Phillips!
Jess was so gutsy at the count & at resisting the thugs. !00% respect from Holborn.
I like Beth Rigby - I just love that cynicism in her voice!!
of course the intimidation was towards women..all bullies r cowards..love u Jess x
See I really like this, I never knew this was a thing until it popped up in my recommended. I like seeing Jess and Ruth, two political adversaries, having a chill conversation like pals. I like both of them individually two.
I want the new MPs to commit to being members of parliament and not take second jobs
Kier starmer said he’s gonna ban second jobs so we should be good on that front
@@MH-sg8rn So Jess won’t be co-hosting podcasts?
@@GuntD-rz1xb It's not exactly a second job is it, calm down dear 😂😂😂 Where's your faux outrage for the actual second/third jobs all the tories have/had?
@@GuntD-rz1xb I imagine media appearances would be an exception otherwise that would be silly
@@GuntD-rz1xb
Given the insights of more successful podcasts, on the economics of content creation, I don't think either of the hosts are reliant on the few pennies these episodes bring in.
If it becomes an issue, all they have to do is donate their minute royalties to a charity of their choice, and it becomes a non-issue.
Jess is an absolute class act
Yeah, especially on men's mental health...
Well done jess
While I do feel sorry for Jess and what she has had to go through in this campaign and I hope it doesn't happen again; as a Lib Dem activist this is what I and many of my friends/colleagues had to deal with for years from Labour activists under the leadership of Miliband and Corbyn.
Well done Jess
Congratulations on your win Jess Phillips!!
I've always had a marmite feeling towards Jess Phillips, she's a great advocate for women's rights and is a real critical thinker in parliament. At times I have completely disagreed with her and did not like her factionalism in Labour whilst during the Corbyn years.
However, the treatment she has been getting from her constituent opponent is disgusting and completely unjustifiable. We're a functioning democracy and whilst people are free to voice their concerns, people should always be mindful that MPs are actually people who work for us, whether we agree on their methods/attitudes or not.
This is my favourite podcast. It manages to be funny, accessible, wise and incisive.
All power to these women.
Gaza and Jerusalem will become the millstone around Labour's neck. Starmer and Labour is taking the right way here in going against antisemitism. Worker's Party is the Gaza party, if I'm not mistaken. Glad Jess got through.
I'm with Jess. That exit poll was not celebration, it was sheer relief.
Just absolutely love yous 3 together ❤❤❤
Love ya Jess - tell Beth to get a phone strap.
Galloway is gone, the UK is not completely insane :)
It was sad to see Rishi Sunak apologizing to the public for the Conservative Party's losses, signaling the party's decline. From my perspective, Sunak's selection as Prime Minister was a strategic move to restore credibility and stability both within the UK and on the global stage. His image as a competent and calm leader sharply contrasted with Boris Johnson's erratic tenure. This shift highlights a broader pattern in British politics where leaders are often used for their immediate utility and then discarded when they no longer serve their purpose. The British political landscape frequently leverages individuals for short-term gain, only to cast them aside once their perceived value diminishes.
Sunak did his best, but he inherited a trainwreck of a party and government that is a damaged brand. The Conservatives have sustained so much damage over the years that it's going to take years to repair it's battered image. I hope Labour can get the country's governance back on track, but they'll have to earn our trust.
Nice banter girls 😂
To think it doesn't matter if Starmer had demanded a ceasefire and suspended arms sales and did not unequivocally "stand with Israel"and acrry on as if there are no war crimes happening,no human rights abuses happening and that Israel has been acting in legitimate self defense"which is what he has been saying over and over and over again is what has lost any faith or respect for him and the front bench.
Its not whether the labour party can single handledly make Netanyahu stop bombing Gaza because obviously with other western allies"or ultimately probably the US but what matters is that people see unjustifiable violence and bombing being used against a civilains popualtion be called out and not called "defense".
Why am i crying? Anyway, we need to take the money back from private health for the elective operations. 4m from sajid 10m from sunak on top of test and trace etc etc.
Did the timing of the election impact the SNP's position? It is worth noting that during school holidays, many individuals were unable to vote as they were on holiday before receiving their postal votes. This raises the issue of potentially bringing Royal Mail back into the Public Sector. Not satisfactory position. Love the podcast.
So much for Can't Shapps and his miracle spreadsheet.

Great to hear Jess back and on good form after the targeted intimidation from religious extremists the past few weeks.
Starmer could stop arms sales to Israel. Well done Jess in standing up to male aggression. Good strong female numbers in cabinet and first female chancellor. AshWorth is a loss. Earliest safe labour seat essential.
Keri Starmer haas done a good job stamping out anti-Semitism in the Labour Party.
@@johnmartin7158 unfortunately we have many "woke" people who have a bind spot when it comes to Islam, people that will ignore what Jody McIntyre actually stands for to make their point that they are on the Palestinian side
@@vaseline69yiu don't know what woke means, "quotation marks" or not
@@K_j_M by woke I was saying people who believe they are woke but by no means actually are, people who would march for feminism but at the same time vote for a candidate that thinks woman are second class citizens, would march in pride marches while ignoring the policies of Hamas that would execute LGBTQ + people
Absolutely love your podcast and have listened in throughout the campaigning. I stayed up throughout the night and early morning so my Portillo moments were…of course Rees Mogg and Liz Truss….I had my Conservative Bingo card….( sorry Ruth)some hits and sadly some misses….the latter Suella Braverman….her speech was merely a leadership launch, Jeremy Hunt…oh so close….The fall and demise of the conservative govt that became a micro American style of fractionism and republican politics totally embraced by B Johnson and the right of the party was joyous to see as the damage this Govt has done to the country is immense….which has allowed for the rise of Reform. I hope we can now benefit from a Govt that aims to deliver from a baseline of integrity and understanding of what it means to live in poverty.
HAREEEEEEEEEBOS!
We must all take our share of immigrants says the new government ..Can't remember that being in the Manifesto
Doesn't need to be in the manifesto.
It's in the UK's binding international agreements, as enshrined into UK law by Winston Churchill.

Capitalism yet what happened most sun the alcohol
No talk about tactical voting?
So much happiness for nothing. Just an excuse for England to drink. Situation normal.
Reform and the worker’s party are not proper parties in my opinion
unfortunately we have voters who don't think that,
one isnt for def reform is a limited company
They are both single issue parties at best, which is not what the country needs right now.
Lizz Truss area have a quirk where the losing mp does not make a speech apparently

I do agree that the media give farage more air time and his results potentially dont warrent it. However, he did gain a lot of vote which should not be played down. He is also can speak which bring in viewers a lot of other parties do not have that.
Reform were barely trailing the Tories in a lot of places. And I hate to bring up the old chestnut but their 14% popular vote resulting in 5 seats contrasted with the Lib Dems' 12% popular vote resulting in 61 seats is a conversation that needs to be had.
@@goodlookinouthomie1757 it sort of need to had. But not to the extent people want. People don't understand that governemt formation is a vital part of a voting system. FPTP is the best at doing that. With it it creates a large amount of wasted votes. People want there vote to count more, but we should absolutely not attempt to have pure PR the system.

Is there any co-incidence that Electoral Dysfunction is all women, and we now have women power in Westminster. Some really good appointments by PM Starmer.
"Giving power to a woman is like giving a gun to a monkey" as a great philosopher once said.
I'm not a labour supporter, however I would vote for jess or some of the others as theyare real! Well done jess.🎉 xx
Yeah they are real alright, real virtue signalling flip-floppers....
Why do three women think it's acceptable to give their podcast a title based on a specifically male health problem? Do they think there is something inherently funny about male health problems? I can imagine their reaction if three men named a podcast based on a specifically female health problem. Double standards.
Love to hear Jess Phillips being sweary.
Same with Emily Maitlis.
Need to hear more humanity like this.

Jess Phillips! Why be so dismissive of Reform? 4.1m votes for 5 seats when Liberal Demoprats 3.5m votes get them 71 seats. The system in a joke, there is 0 respect for voters. I voted Labour in a Labour gain constituency btw hoping for better than we've had for most of my adult life.

Is she the oldest woman in parliament?!
@@methanedirigible its not the oldest, its the longest serving
@methanedirigible
Don't know if it matters that much she is such a good person. They should just give it to her.
@@vaseline69 Is she (JP) the longest serving female MP in parliament?
