Calamity Lammy and Reeves’ Pre-Budget Speech w/ Tom Willerton-Gartside | Political Frenemies #34

from Political Frenemies · host Political Frenemies

In this episode of Political Frenemies, Lib Dem activist Mathew Hulbert, former Tory adviser Chris Newton, and researcher-campaigner Tom Willerton-Gartside dive into a whirlwind week in politics — from David Lammy’s embattled response to the prisoner release fiasco to Rachel Reeves’ and Nigel Farage’s speeches on the economy. The trio tackle the charged atmosphere and protests at Villa Park during the Aston Villa vs. Maccabi Tel Aviv match, ask whether the British left can take inspiration from Zohran Mamdani’s grassroots success, and round things off with thoughtful reflections on Remembrance Sunday. Spirited, sharp, and surprisingly good-natured — it’s politics without the echo chamber.Thumbnail Image: Foreign, Commonwealth, and Development Officehttps://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:2025_07_22_Foreign_Secretary_David_Lammy_at_NCA,_London,_with_DG_Rob_Jones_(54670654192).jpgTwitter/X: @PolFrenemies
