    The Left has a new bouncing baby party! Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell talk through the week's political stories, with a focus on Your Party - no, not your party; Your Party - the trade deal between the UK and India, and the success story of Baltimore, pointing the opposite way of populism on how to reduce crime. ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*** “If we did an episode about every rich old fart that goes to Scotland to golf, it would be a daily podcast. Although, to be honest, we would probably have richer sponsors." “I think we should be happy to see a serious addition to the political landscape. I think we should be happy that somebody like Corbyn's involved… His base was full of energy and he was getting cut-through. In short. More options are good and a democracy, aren't they?” “Democracy is democracy, and plurality is plurality. We have to live our values. You can’t treat voters as if they belong to you. You can’t get stroppy when someone else decides to set up a party. You can fight them, politically, ideologically, contest those votes ten times harder. But you don’t own them.” Our bookshop including many of the books we have featured can be found at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠uk.bookshop.org/shop/quietriot⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ You can find Podyssey here on Apple Podcasts and here on Spotify - or just search for "Alex Andreou's Podyssey" on any platform.

  • How do you solve a problem like migration?

    How do you solve a problem like migration?
    Jul 24 2025
    Alex Andreou, Naomi Smith and special guest, CEO of migrant support charity PRAXIS, Minnie Rahman, discuss the protest flashpoint in Epping and ask what does a humane, open, fair immigration policy look like and how we can make the case for it. And in Part II, as Parliament goes into recess, we look at the assortment of Oppositions' Positions and whether they add up. Plus 'Wokey Dokey'. ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠*** “I dislike the term ‘integration’ applied to immigrants. The people who are not integrated in this country are the politicians and the Eton crowd. They are the ones who need to integrate with the general population.” “The [Johnson] gov't added to the mistrust about immigration, by cynically injecting record numbers of migrants as a counterbalance for a disastrous Brexit. They knew the economy was going to suffer significantly and the easiest way of that not happening was to shove an extra million people's product onto the GDP.” “Local funding has been cut and cut and cut. And when local authorities cannot afford libraries, or leisure centres, or even a fireworks display, then communities don’t spend time together, they don’t work together, they don’t get to know or understand one-another.” “I don’t think this country is particularly racist. But it is very insular. It is very: We’re in. You’re out. But the crux of the out-group does not seem to be race. It is more: We understand the rules. You don’t know the rules. We hate having to explain the rules. Therefore, we don’t want you.” “We don’t talk enough about class. Class division is ignored and pushed into the conversation about racism. Now, obviously, class and race are integrated and racism does exist in the country. But progressives lack a clear vision. We are missing strong voices on the left that can go out and say: I get it. You’re having a shit time. But this isn’t the solution.” “We are basically serfs. Doffing our cap and heralding privilege in such a grotesque way that people can’t even see through this bullshit peddler, who went to Dulwich college, became a banker, and now tries to tell you that refugees are the problem and not this entrenched privilege from which he and his ilk have benefited far more than anyone who has arrived on a boat.” ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠⁠*** CALLS TO ACTION: Support the great work that PRAXIS does here.

    Sunday School: Smells like teen spirit
    Jul 20 2025
    Votes for 16-year-olds incoming, Stephen Colbert's Late Show outgoing. Naomi Smith and Kenny Campbell take a peek at the latest moves to let 16 and 17-year-olds vote in general elections – is it a long-overdue resetting of democratic rights or the end of days? And the grim news that CBS is cancelling The Late Show With Stephen Colbert has us asking whether this is about politics, profits or a horrible combination of both. Plus, Trump decides to sue Murdoch as we record this episode... so much media drama to cram in. ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*** Our bookshop, including many of the books we have featured, can be found at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠uk.bookshop.org/shop/quietriot⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Email us at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠quietriotpod@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
