Description

The Tories are failing on their housing promises. Quelle surprise. Up steps Michael Gove to save the day – or is he? Are his newly announced plans actually anything new? And will they make a difference? Then, as the world heats up and our political parties abandon key pledges on climate, are you losing hope? We discuss climate despair. And in the extra bit for subscribers, the panel unpacks Oppenheimer and how its dual release with Barbie could impact Hollywood.


“They’re simply announcing things they’ve already tried with no clear answer.” – Hannah Fearn.

“They’ve suddenly realised that people really do care about housing…they know they need to say something.” – Hannah Fearn.

“The polling shows there is a real consensus amongst voters that climate is important.” – Hannah Fearn.

“If more general elections were held in the middle of July I think people would vote accordingly.” – Seth Thévoz.
