Should Starmer Stand Up to Trump? w/ Cllr Zak Wagman | Political Frenemies #41

Political Frenemies kicks off 2026 with a bang as former Tory adviser Chris Newton and Lib Dem activist Mathew Hulbert welcome their first guest of the year, Tory councillor Zak Wagman, for a no-holds-barred take on a week of political shockwaves. From Britain’s jittery response to Donald Trump’s intervention in Venezuela and his threats over Greenland, to Keir Starmer’s decision to commit UK troops to Ukraine in the event of a ceasefire, the trio spar over what it all means for Britain’s role in the world. Add in government threats to ban X and Reform UK’s choice of Laila Cunningham as their London mayoral candidate, and you’ve got sharp analysis, partisan fire, and the kind of cross-party clash that makes Political Frenemies essential listening.Thumbnail Image: The White House
