Podcasts about Kenny Campbell

With just over a year to go until the 2026 Senedd elections, Welsh politics is anything but quiet. Reform UK is making noise, Plaid is recalibrating, and Labour is battling to stay visible - all as new EU-UK agreements raise questions about the future of flagship Welsh initiatives like the Taith scheme. Award-winning journalist Will Hayward joins Naomi Smith for a deep dive into the political forces shaping the next chapter of Welsh democracy. From Wrexham terraces to Cardiff Bay, it's all in flux and it all matters, and not just for Wales. ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠*** LINKS: Find Will Hayward's ⁠substack here⁠, his ⁠podcast here⁠, and his ⁠YouTube channel here⁠.

Naomi Smith and Alex Andreou, with special guest, economist Vicky Pryce take a detailed look at the Spending Review. Does the ambition match the maths? And in Part II, we ask whether, before we have another inquiry, we need to question whether this slow, expensive model achieves change or actually impedes it. Plus 'Wokey Dokey' and 'Grin And Share It'. ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*** “Infrastructure matters hugely. If you want to be competitive and have an economy with high productivity you have to put the infrastructure in place.”  “What this new government really should have done is immediately reversed the National Insurance contribution cut that Jeremy Hunt gave just before the election. That twenty billion accounts for most of the black hole they found when they came into power.” “Public inquiries have become a tool for governments to put distance between themselves and the problem. Instead of being an instrument for change, they are a way to take energy out of a push for change.” “Often, the very people screaming about rape gangs are the same people saying, we shouldn't have age-appropriate sex education, the very people denying children agency over their own bodies, denying them education to give them the language to be able to talk to someone who can help.” “It seems utterly bizarre to end up in a situation where the Prime Minister says: ‘Well, I read the report and it convinced me," and everyone's reaction is: ‘What? This is outrageous!'” CALLS TO ACTION Buy Vicky's books - and support a local bookshop - at our online bookstore. Read about the work of Campaign for The Arts here.

Naomi Smith and Alex Andreou talk through the week's stories, including Israel's escalation towards Iran and where that leaves an already inflamed region.

CALL TO ACTION Support the charity Migrant Centre NI. http://migrantcentreni.org/ ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*** "Netanyahu, Khamenei, Erdogan, Putin, Trump - they are on the same wavelength. A bunch of angry men whose only obssession is holding on to power . They may not agree on many things, they may not agree on anything, but - by God - they understand each other." "Putin playing peacemaker is like a pyromaniac volunteering for the fire brigade. He's spent the last three years trying to turn Ukraine into a giant car park and is now trying to position himself as a voice of reason in the Middle East. But who knows? Maybe he will be useful for once in his god damn life." “Social Media is a negative space. You don't exist unless you say something vaguely original or controversial. And controversial is easier. The majority of people lack the capacity to articulate something original. That leaves only one avenue to being noticed - to existing ." "What happened in Ballymena wasn't panic or collective outrage. It was a crowd eager to act out. The girl at the centre of it was not mentioned once. Not her name. Not a sign. Not a chant. She was not the reason. She was the excuse."

When that starts to happen it's very difficult to build back, because people who want to get involved in local politics are rare.”  “We have to get better at doing the quid-pro-quo of providing infrastructure - roads, schools, GPs - together with building houses.

Plus, we have the closest this podcast has even come to a row, over the result of the Scottish by-election in Hamilton. ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*** “Trump is now a Tesla owner who hates Musk. Surely this will make him more popular than ever.” "If there is substance behind Musk's accusations, Team Trump are going to go into full panic lockdown. And if not, Musk's just gifted him the 'look at the unhinged billionaire trying to smear me' defense." "We're seeing this from an Anglocentric perspective. There is nothing to stop Musk from taking his technology and his business in a direction that brings him closer to the Middle East, let's say. There are plenty of other places. Who knows what China's view on this is, for example." "A lot of the MAGA crowd, the big influencers, the YouTubers, the podcasters, the blue ticks, are monetizing X. So a lot of them depend on it for reach and actual income. Musk is in quite a powerful position when it comes to them." "The Authoritarian Right is populated by people who think the harshest possible rules should apply - to everyone else." "The problem for Labour is that they are losing seven times more votes to the left than they are to the right. With such very small margins, in other parts of the country that could really tip them down into danger territory." "Labour dodged a bullet. And in that part of Scotland in particular, once upon a time, not too long ago, if Farage and Tice walked into a pub and started spouting, you'd have to say that they'd exit through the window." “Can you stop saying 'Boris Johnson' please? It might be like Candyman. Like, if you say his name on a podcast three times, he appears as a guest." "This fragmentation in a first-past-the-post system is difficult for Labour. And it is for that reason that I think they should definitely back PR - and they're not going to. But they will be extremely concerned about pursuing an 'if you don't like Farage, you have to vote for us' strategy. That's clearly not where voters are."

Alex Andreou and Zoe Williams, with special guest, former Home Secretary and author of a new Harold Wilson biography, Alan Johnson, discuss the Strategic Defence Review, the upcoming departmental budgets, whether Starmer's government has a choice, but to spend that money and a choice on where to find it. Also, taking over a stagnant economy after more than a decade of Tory cuts, a poor start in government, trying to balance a tight fiscal position with demands on public services, pressure from a US President, and facing accusations of being unprincipled. Yet Wilson survived and went on to win election after election. What can his story teach the Starmer government? Plus 'Wokey Dokey' and 'Grin And Share It'.

You can't say: oh well, we'll gamble that when Trump goes it will go back to normal. You have to say: this has happened, we've got to react to it.” "The two Labour Party groups to keep together are not Left and Right, but intellectual progressives and blue collar trade unionists.

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? ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*** “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.” 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.

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.

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 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*** “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.” Our bookshop including many of the books we have featured can be found at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠uk.bookshop.org/shop/quietriot⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ You can find Arthur's superb "Behind The Lines" podcast here.

Alex Andreou talks to journalist, best-selling author - and former Wallaby - Peter FitzSimons about the results, the campaign, the Trump backlash, the extraordinary phenomenon of The Teals, and the inexportability of American culture wars. What lessons can Labour in the UK learn? ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠*** ”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.”  Our bookshop including many of the books we have featured can be found at ⁠⁠⁠uk.bookshop.org/shop/quietriot⁠⁠⁠ ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠⁠*** With Naomi Smith, Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell – in cahoots with Sandstone Global.

Is Starmer missing on the anti-Trump dividend? ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠*** “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.” Our bookshop including many of the books we have featured can be found at ⁠⁠uk.bookshop.org/shop/quietriot⁠⁠ ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠⁠*** With Naomi Smith, Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell – in cahoots with Sandstone Global.

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.”  ***SPONSOR US AT ⁠KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD⁠*** CALLS TO ACTION VOTE! Also, subscribe to Peter Kellner's substack here.

With pollution out of control, infrastructure at breaking point and water companies prioritising the pumping of pounds – many pounds – to shareholders, our water industry has dissolved into a murky mess. Our seas and rivers are a disgrace, the National Audit Office has warned some areas could run out of water by 2034, and Britain's biggest water company is begging for a Government bailout, after years of loading up with debt to help it pay out juicy dividends. In this Quiet Riot special, our producer Kenny Campbell takes a deep dive into the issues and possible solutions to the water crisis with Norwich South MP Clive Lewis, whose Private Member's Bill on the subject will be debated this week. It's a topic that vexes our listeners – we know, because it's listeners who suggested we look into the scandalous state of affairs the water industry finds itself in. How did we get into this dreadful situation? What can we do about it? How did Labour MP Clive Lewis find himself buttonholed by Richard Tice only to find the Reform MP was in agreement about the state of water companies? And how are Trumpian politics linked to what is going on in the industry? If you swim, paddle or drink water, then this is a must-listen episode.

With a looming election, a troublesome neighbour and a former Bank of England Governor as unelected PM, Canada is living through excruciatingly interesting times. We thought it was time to cuddle up to our Canuck cousins, and so Naomi Smith is joined for this special episode by Canadian journalist Graham Lanktree. Graham is Politico's UK trade specialist, and an ideal guide to the ins and outs of Canadian politics. How do Canadians feel about Mark Carney, a leader who has not been elected as an MP? Talking of unelected figures, what about their views on the Royal Family? As Trump bulldozes his way across the political landscape, will Canada try to disentangle its trade relations with the US, and cozy up to the EU? And How might Trump's second state visit to the UK affect UK-Canada diplomatic relations ? Get all this and more in our brilliant bite-sized guide to Canada! ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** Show notes: Sign up for a fee demo of politico pro HERE And don't forget to listen to the mythical and marvellous new hit podcast from the Quiet Riot stable: ALEX ANDREOU'S PODYSSEY can be found here:APPLE: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/alex-andreous-podyssey/id1798575126SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/2x7cD3HjkOyOKTF4YT5Goy?si=e7a86b762431451fAMAZON MUSIC: https://music.amazon.co.uk/podcasts/8c996062-ef8d-42e4-9d80-5b407cb6e2e2/alex-andreou's-podysseyOVERCAST: https://overcast.fm/+ABN4Gd7AP9QPOCKET CASTS: https://pca.st/podcast/9e98d690-d812-013d-ea22-0affdfd67dbdYouTube Music: Coming Soon Or you can add it to any app, using the RSS feed: https://feeds.megaphone.fm/podysseySUBSCRIBE OR FOLLOW NOW!Our bookshop including many of the books we have featured can be found at uk.bookshop.org/shop/quietriot ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** With Naomi Smith, Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell – in cahoots with Sandstone Global.Email us at quietriotpod@gmail.com.

KENNY CAMPBELL / JUDGEMENT DAY RECORDS RADIO SHOW #42 ON TOXIC SICKNESS / MARCH / 2025 by TOXIC SICKNESS OFFICIAL

'Tis the season of St Patrick and so Naomi Smith is joined by Irish politics specialist Professor Mary C Murphy, to see whether Ireland's political glass is half empty or half full. Questions are there many... Ireland is one of three neutral EU countries but is that sustainable in the age of Trump and Putin? How do young people on the island differ politically from their parents? Could there be a border poll and why would it be fraught with risk? And should the Taoiseach be raising a glass to his St Patrick's Day visit to the White House, or drowning his sorrows? Mary is Professor of Political Science and Director of the Irish Institute at Boston College in Massachusetts. ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** (and thank you!) Our Quiet Riot bookshop supports independent book sellers and features lots of the books we feature on the show. Find Professor Murphy's thorough study on post-Brexit Northern Ireland here.

Alex Andreou and Naomi Smith talk through the week's news, with a focus on the astounding implosion within Reform UK and signs of reversal of policies and freezing out of Musk by Trump. PLUS will changes on how GDP is calculated help or hinder Reeves? ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** “Parliaments with a higher number of female leaders are more likely to be more equal, achieve higher economic growth and experience lower levels of corruption.” “Have Reform peaked too soon? Timing is everything. By doing well in some polls, people have started to treat them more seriously, to question them about policy, to look at people beyond Farage. And there is nothing there.” “Trump fails to understand much beyond ‘you've got this and I want it, why won't you take a deal?' In his head they are all not being rational, because he fails to realise that a peace treaty is not a business deal. This isn't a challenge on The Apprentice.” “DOGE's entire power depends on its being able to impose itself on other departments. So, when Trump tells Musk: well, you can advise, but the State Secretaries will decide, is not just a demotion. It's a humiliation.” ALEX ANDREOU'S PODYSSEY can be found here: APPLE: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/alex-andreous-podyssey/id1798575126 SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/2x7cD3HjkOyOKTF4YT5Goy?si=e7a86b762431451f AMAZON MUSIC: https://music.amazon.co.uk/podcasts/8c996062-ef8d-42e4-9d80-5b407cb6e2e2/alex-andreou's-podyssey OVERCAST: https://overcast.fm/+ABN4Gd7AP9Q POCKET CASTS: https://pca.st/podcast/9e98d690-d812-013d-ea22-0affdfd67dbd YouTube Music: Coming Soon Or you can add it to any app, using the RSS feed: https://feeds.megaphone.fm/podyssey SUBSCRIBE OR FOLLOW NOW!

The one bit he can't control, the one part of reality he cannot alter, is how much people's weekly supermarket bill is, or what they pay at the gas pump. And it might be his undoing.” “The notion of a European army used to be the Brexiteers' bogeyman. And now more people believe there should be such a combined European defence force than not. In fact, support for it has doubled since 2020. So, Trump has definitely had a cohesive effect.” “There is a danger at the moment of confusing the very online Reform supporters on X with wider Reform. Actually, if you look at the shift that's allowed them to grow eight-nine points since the election, they're more moderate, more female, and don't approve of Trump or Musk.” “The working class is not some homogenous block of post-liberal anti-woke Trumpists, just like not every progressive lives in leafy North London, supports Arsenal, and studied law at a Russell Group University. I reject this kind of identity politics.” “[Blue Labour] seems to me a sort of pretend salt-of-the-earth authenticity and radicalism, while actually just appropriating small-c conservative politics of division. Women and ethnic or sexual minorities are pretty absent from their cynically drawn picture of class.” “On immigration, the median voter balances three things: compassion, control, and competence. And politicians confuse that with ‘people don't want any immigration'. It's just not true.” CALLS TO ACTION LINKS: Find out more about 1 Team 1 Fight and donate to them.
