Moot Points

Adam discusses the value of public service and how democracy proceeds after the murder of Sir David Amess MP with Barwell parish councillor Mathew Hulbert.

This month, Adam and Ellen are joined by the Director of Public Health at Birmingham City Council, Dr. Justin Varney, for a chat about the future of the pandemic and how he's coped with protecting a city.

For this month's edition, we are glad to be joined by Leicestershire county councillors Amanda Hacks, Peter Bedford & Michael Mullaney for a fascinating chat about local government and its role during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Adam & Ellen have a chat about May’s news, what events might mean, and somehow confuse an ex-Strictly Come Dancing judge with the outgoing FM of Northern Ireland.

In our latest monthly episode, Adam, Alex, and Ellen chat about the clash between vigil attendees and the Met Police at Clapham, the Budget and Harry and Meghan’s extraordinary conversation with Oprah.

Welcome to our first monthly podcast - looking back the weeks gone by and those ahead. Be aware: this episode contains some language and adult... humour? Might be a stretch.

In this episode, Adam, Jack, Alex & Ellen examine Wednesday’s inauguration and look ahead at what’s in store for 2021 in the US of A.

Adam, Jack & Alex take a look, rather belatedly, at the year to come - from vaccinations to radio sound effects.

From ‘Cummings Gate’ to online exams, join Adam and Jack as they seek to make sense of this century defining pandemic.

Merry Christmas! Join Adam and Jack for their highlights of 2019 and a quiz of the year, as well as their predictions for the year ahead...

This edition of Moot Points covers HUGE developments in the UK and US during the past couple of weeks, including the Supreme Court prorogation ruling, Boris’ two border Brexit proposal and the impeachment enquiry into the presidency of Donald J. Trump

This is our Sopel Special! Thank you so much to the man himself for giving us a little intro to this ep. This time we have an entire episode of US political goodness for you, based on our time at Sopel’s book talk. Enjoy. We definitely recommend said book, A Year at the Circus, btw ;)

Not much to talk about this week really...

Welcome to week 3! This week the podcast has a rather American flavour as we introduce a new segment regarding our friends across the Atlantic! Governmental preparations for a GE back home don’t go amiss, however.

This week we talk about the Boris Johnson UK tour, what the result of the Brecon and Radnorshire by-election could mean for a possible future GE, and the Queen’s favourite pizza...

Boris Johnson, who as a child dreamt of becoming ‘World King’, becomes the UK’s new PM, and begins with a full scale cabinet purge.
