Only qualified electors who reside in Quebec are permitted to contribute funds to Arpad's campaign. If you live in Quebec, please do so. If you live in Arthabaska, please help Arpad in his campaign. Learn more about Arpad at: http://arpadnagy.ca

Prime Minister Mark Carney named his new cabinet last week. Do his choices suggest some electoral considerations came into play on who did and didn't made the cut — and does a cabinet minister make a difference at the ballot box? Plus, Pierre Poilievre's byelection in Battle River–Crowfoot looms, as does the prickly subject of Alberta separation.This week on The Numbers, we discuss some of these new developments in federal politics. We also delve into new polling numbers in Ontario and Alberta, as well as in Quebec where the Parti Québécois is holding a wide lead. Could Pablo Rodriguez, if he wins the Quebec Liberal leadership, shake things up? And how could a referendum on Alberta independence impact that debate in Quebec?Looking for even more of The Numbers?

Is Keir Starmer's leadership sinking? With Labour facing mounting scandals and political turmoil, Starmer's grip on the party appears weaker than ever. The latest bombshells include Rachel Reeves allegedly lying on her CV, Jonathan Reynolds falsely claiming to be a solicitor, and now Labour MP Mike Amesbury jailed for assault, triggering a by-election crisis. As UK politics heats up, can Starmer survive the backlash? With public trust in Labour wavering, the party faces pressure from both the Conservatives and Reform UK ahead of the next general election. Meanwhile, global issues like Trump's influence, the war in Ukraine, and the cost of living crisis add to the challenges facing UK leadership. Will Starmer's centrist strategy hold the party together, or are we witnessing the beginning of the end for his leadership? Tune in for a deep dive into UK political news, debate, and free speech analysis.

It's got a conservative pundit that wants a council seat and has his eyes on another shot at the mayor's chair. It has three liberal candidates lining up to stop him, which might be two candidates too many. It's got high stakes, citywide implications and an ex-premier and a former mayor politicking behind the scenes.Normally city council byelections are boring, low-turnout affairs.

Monday night, June 24th, is byelection night in the Toronto riding of Toronto-St Paul's. Will the voters there determine the fate of Justin Trudeau. It's the big question, the only question, in the days leading up to the vote. Chantal and Bruce have their analysis in our last full edition Good Talk before the summer hiatus.

A week that was supposed to bring more woe for Rishi Sunak has turned into arguably the biggest test of Keir Starmer's leadership. Labour has had to suspend two of its parliamentary candidates for making comments about Israel. For Starmer, who's staked his reputation on ridding Labour of anti-semitism, it's been hugely embarrassing. Nish and Coco reflect on the farcical situation in Rochdale, where Azhar Ali will appear as a Labour candidate on the by-election ballot in a couple of weeks, despite the party having removed its support for him. With the Horizon Post Office scandal having put the use of non-disclosure agreements back in the spotlight, we hear from a woman who has made it her mission to stop NDAs being used to silence victims. Zelda Perkins, a former assistant to Harvey Weinstein, tells Nish and Coco about the traumatic experience of signing her NDA, which she likens to “legal waterboarding”, and why she chose to break it to help expose the film producer's crimes. On an optimistic note, she reveals how politicians from across the political divide are helping her to achieve change.Wrexham FC owners Ryan Renolds and Rob McElhenney feature in heroes and villains, as do three councillors from Warwickshire County Council. Plus find out why Nish has ditched Coco on Valentine's Day, and why they want your Jason Statham inspired film art. Pod Save the UK is a Reduced Listening production for Crooked Media. Contact us via email: PSUK@reducedlistening.co.ukWhatsApp: 07514 644 572 (UK) or + 44 7514 644 572Insta: https://instagram.com/podsavetheukTwitter: https://twitter.com/podsavetheukTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@podsavetheukFacebook: https://facebook.com/podsavetheukYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/podsavetheworld Guest:Zelda Perkins, co-founder of Can't Buy My Silence Audio credits:Sky Newsparliamentlive.tv‘She Said', Annapurna Pictures, Plan B Entertainment and Universal PicturesWarwickshire County CouncilUseful links:https://www.cantbuymysilence.com/https://protect-advice.org.uk/https://www.wbuk.org/
