Straight Outta Denton – What it really means for Labour, Reform and the Greens

This edition recorded before the US attacks on Iran. The dust is still settling from Gorton and Denton. Are the Greens playing with fire with their voter targeting? If Keir Starmer’s leadership is back in question, how long has he got? Are Reform going full Trump with their whining about “cheating”? And can anyone think of anything at all to say about the Tories? Plus: Is there any appetite for an ICE-style immigration Gestapo like Zia Yusuf wants for his “Deportation Command”? After our EmergencyPod, Ros Taylor, Andrew Harrison and Steve Richards of the Rock & Roll Politics podcast reconvene to take a longer view.  ESCAPE ROUTES • Ros recommends Nonesuch by Francis Spufford.  • Steve has been watching Brazilian movie The Secret Agent, reading one chapter of War And Peace a day with the help of this Substack, and masochistically enjoying the torment of Tottenham Hotspur FC.  • Andrew recommends superior sci-fi action movie Predator: Badlands on Disney+.  • Hear more of Steve Richards on Gorton and Denton on the Rock & Roll Politics podcast  www.patreon.com/ohgodwhatnow Presented by Andrew Harrison with Ros Taylor and Steve Richards.
