Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell talk through the week's political news, with a focus on the end of Musk's chemical romance with the White House, Trump's well-earned "TACO" moniker, and Harvard's resistance.
Also, we look back at the RBS bail-out and how it continues to be felt in our politics today.
PLUS - Watch out. Robert Jenrick's about. Why has our politics become so small, meand, and petty?

“The big difference between Trump’s first term and this one is that everyone around him seems resigned to the idea that they can’t make policy, consult, or shape his thinking ahead of time. The whole outfit has swung into hearing his latest brain-fart, same time as we do, then double down and pretend that it is the best plan ever.”
“Jenrick is not a vigilante. He’s not an action man. His defining quality is flaccidity. His reputation is that of a petty, mean, small man, who paints over kids’ murals. So, while the stunt might have worked for someone else, for Jenrick it simply cements his reputation as a petty, mean, small man.”

“We have a massive election year next year. The challenge between now and next May is to hold to account the ten councils that Reform now run and the mayors they have got.”
“I’m trying to do this thing, partly for my own health, when Reform are speaking where I listen and try to find things I agree with. Things to which I can say ‘yeah, I hear you’. Otherwise I start from a position of absolute hostility and treating everything as if it’s nonsense.”
“What on earth do we do with young men? Let’s start by saying: look, this isn’t your fault, but as soon as you’re ready, it is going to be your responsibility to help to make this better. That’s difficult stuff. You can’t cheat those conversations.”
“The maddening thing with Nick Clegg is that the trajectory of his shitness is so chartable. He smelled the money, went after it, came back eye-wateringly rich, and in real time, in a way we can observe, he lost any care for the people that this affects.”
“People have rights to their product. It’s astonishing for Nick Clegg to shrug and say: there’s no way of stopping AI from stealing your stuff… If I created a great new drone, that went into Tesco and nicked whatever parts it needed all the time, I promise you I would have a f***ing problem. The system would say: fix your product or it’s dead.”

Alex Andreou and Naomi Smith talk through the week's political news, with a focus on the apparent briefing and counter-briefing war inside No. 10, the softening of policy on winter fuel payments, and the latest ONS migration data.
PLUS guest Arthur Snell explains the significance of the change of stance by the US and Europe towards Israel over Gaza.
***SPONSOR US AT â â â â â KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPODâ â â â â ***
“Conventional wisdom was that local election results had strengthened the hand of the Blue Labour lot. The ‘Island of Strangers’ speech was seen as such an overreach, such a turnoff by so many that, whatever advantage they had, they overplayed it. It's backfired and backfired badly. So we now have a significant briefing and counter-briefing operation going on.”
“Some of the usual suspects have offered some hilariously hot takes on the winter fuel payment rethink, even linking it to market turbulence. To look at an environment where you have Trump threatening 50% tariffs on the EU and come to the conclusion that markets are worried about the threshold of the winter fuel payment… I mean, that is deranged.”
“Everybody I speak to, on either side of the Channel, who wants [the UK-EU reset] to succeed is saying the biggest risk we face now is loss of enthusiasm on both sides. Business communities within Europe, within the UK, voter groups that want it, civilian groups, civil society - we have got to keep the pressure up.”
“The one thing that is certain is that this can't go on for four years. You can't have No.10 factions briefing against each other. There needs to be some kind of sanitisation exercise with the widely expected reshuffle in June. Starmer will have to do the thing that Stammer really hates doing most: pick a side.”

”The key transformation was when Donald Trump got elected. The vast majority of Australians looked at Trump aghast. Day after day after day, we have seen chaos on roller-skates. And most said: look, we may not know what we’re doing, but we’re not doing THAT.”
“The Liberals have been wiped out. The problem is that I don’t see any potential leader among them who can say what needs to be said. And what needs to be said is: All you old white blokes who oppose marriage equality, out! All the people who deny the science of climate change, out! You are stinking up the place.”
“Trumpian politics is about activating your base. So you get every nutter you can to vote for you. In Australia , everyone has to vote, so it’s not about activating any base. It’s about appealing to the largest number of people.”

“Labour need to start governing. They need to stop triangulating and start running the country. They are wasting the term they have been given, worrying about a second one. They can do a lot of good, if they stop being terrified of losing power in 2029 and start using the power they have in 2025.”
“Every single time I speak to officials in Brussels, they ask: ‘What does your government want, Naomi? We’re very open about what we would like to see from the reset. We still don’t know what you guys want.’ And if they don’t know, then British voters sure-as-hell don’t know.”

Alex Andreou and Naomi Smith opolling guru Peter Kellner, dissect opinions polls on Trump's second, first, 100 Days in the White House, the result of the Canadian election, and preview the local and mayoral elections in England.
Plus 'Wokey Dokey' and 'Grin And Share It'.
“What Mark Carney did was to come close to monopolising the centre/centre-left vote. Which, of course, might have echoes for what Starmer needs to do here. Labour is losing many more votes to the Liberal Democrats, the Greens and the SNP. Labour is suffering, in large measure, because the progressive vote is fragmenting.”
“Businesses live in an uncertain world, but it’s what I would call ‘ordered uncertainty’. We don’t know whether interest rates will be half a point up or down in a year, but we know how the decision will be taken, the forces at work. There is a rational basis for the array of possibilities. With Trump, there is irrational uncertainty.”
“We may, in some local and mayoral contests, which are four- or five-way splits, see very strange results; people elected on a quarter of the vote. In 48 hours, when we know all the figures, they may be the greatest argument that electoral reformers have ever had.”
“Brexit trade barriers were going to defy the laws of economics. And didn't. And in a surprise to precisely no one, except maybe Navarro, the same is happening in the US.”
“If I were to try and find a silver lining to Trump’s first 100 days, it is this: Our time on this Earth is limited, so we should all be thankful to someone that makes it feel SO. MUCH. LONGER.”

”I think we should be very glad that we are blessed with quite bad fascists.”
“The public expect Starmer to be more ambitious in recalibrating the UK’s relationship with the EU. If he is not prepared to do that now, when the atmospherics are what they are and the entire world order has been turned upside-down, maybe we have to accept he is just not going to do it.”
“There is no way to explain why one would think TikTok is dangerous because the firm is close to the Chinese regime, but X is fine because it is fully owned by a rich guy that does Nazi salutes, to think one agenda dangerous but not the other, that doesn’t involve some basic ‘state-bad, private-good’ belief.”
“There is a profound crisis in the British Right, because the refutation of their big-picture political model has been so thorough - not just Brexit, austerity, the Truss budget, the most popular thing Sunak ever did was to pay everyone’s wages - they have nowhere to go.”
