Podcasts about labour conference

Prime Minister Christopher Luxon sat down with Jack Tame on TVNZ's Q&A programme over the weekend - and by Newstalk ZB political editor Jason Walls' count, Luxon uttered the phrase "what I'd say to you is" 21 times - and often struggled to answer Tame's direct questions. "I'm not surprised he said it so many times, it was one of the worst interviews I've ever seen with a Prime Minister." Also, the Labour Party held their annual conference in Christchurch this weekend. What came out of it? Walls joined Nick Mills for the Beehive Buzz.

The 2024 general election result brought a welcome relief to British politics after 14 wasted years of Tory misrule. At last, some better people and ideas are at the helm.But, just a few months in, the challenges facing this new government are already beginning to pile up. Labour will need to be bold if it has any hope of rebuilding our crumbling public services, restoring trust in our democracy and tackling the climate crisis.To reflect on these challenges as Labour held its first conference in power for 15 years, we were be joined by:Adam Bienkov, political editor of Byline TimesHilary Wainwright, co-editor of Red Pepper magazineSupport the showEnjoyed the podcast and want to be a live audience member at our next episode?

Decarbonising power by 2030 is one of the flagship policies for Keir Starmer's government. Whether this is achievable and how we go about the green transition will impact ten of thousands of jobs and everybody's energy bills. So just how do they plan on reaching this ambitious target? Gary Smith, general secretary of the GMB, argues that there is a fundamental dishonesty about the route to net zero, with communities being hollowed out and the working class left behind. All of this has resulted in fertile ground for the far right.   The Spectator's editor Fraser Nelson sat down with Gary Smith at Labour conference last week, to give an alternative take on the net zero debate. 

This week the SBB team headed to Labour Conference to find out what the new Government is going to do for small business. We touch on the torrential rain, our karaoke choice, and why oh why are we still talking about equality in 2024? Lots of questions still outstanding but we recorded this on a boat, so we are feeling buoyant....

This week – we dive into the Labour Conference with fringe events, speeches, and wall-to-wall media interviews, covering donations, wealth tax, and winter fuel allowance... The big bad boy that landed in the press was the mandatory meat and dairy for school dinners, stirring up quite the storm... Keir Starmer's sausage slip-up makes the headlines, and I share my own sausage moment on Sky News...:) Plus, we chat about the bizarre Green 100 list placing Theresa May above me, and finish with fab questions on everything from school meals to protein made from grass... Oh, and that bloke Musk.

Naomi downloads ALL THE GOSSIP from Labour Party Conference - and juicy it is too - before Alex chats to guest, former Middle East diplomat Arthur Snell, about the situation in Lebanon, Ukraine, and the first UN General Assembly for David Lammy and Keir Starmer as Foreign Secretary and PM respectively.

Naomi: “I have never seen so much EU representation at a Labour conference. They were there in force. They see [Labour] as people they can do business with, for the first time in a long time. Officials from Brussels, member state reps, the EU delegation to the UK - they were present, happy… the level of excitement about what the EU and UK are going to do, was palpable.” Alex: “The last time we experienced a leader winning an election, then going into No 10, without having already been in situ as PM, several ministers already at departments, and experienced staff ready to shuffle around, was 2010. It's a steep learning curve. There will be a certain amount of finding their feet. The metric that matters is: is this a government that learns from its mistakes? And that is not a judgment anyone can make yet.” Arthur: “Netanyahu needs another war. He looks at the Gaza situation and, ultimately, a ceasefire and return of the hostages might be getting closer. The Israeli public want the hostages back above anything else. If they get back to anything close to politics as normal in Israel, then attention turns to him.”  Arthur: “What Zelenskyy is trying to do, as best he can - and of course his options are quite limited - he is trying to Trump-proof western support that he is getting, build some guarantees into it and certain elements of long-term commitment.” CALLS TO ACTION Best for Britain's tree-planting donation is here.

Hopefully we will have Stuart back with us next week, but in the meantime we are delighted to have two of Scotland's best commentators on the show - welcome back Angela Haggerty and hot from the Labour Party Conference - Catriona Stewart . Recommendations: Eamonn The Seige - Book - Ben Macintyre On April 30, 1980, six heavily armed gunmen burst into the Iranian embassy on Princes Gate, overlooking Hyde Park in London. There they took 26 hostages, including embassy staff, visitors, and three British citizens. A tense six-day siege ensued as millions gathered around screens across the country to witness the longest news flash in British television history, in which police negotiators and psychiatrists sought a bloodless end to the standoff, while the SAS – hitherto an organisation shrouded in secrecy – laid plans for a daring rescue mission: Operation Nimrod. Drawing on unpublished source material, exclusive interviews with the SAS, and testimony from witnesses including hostages, negotiators, intelligence officers and the on-site psychiatrist, bestselling historian Ben Macintyre takes readers on a gripping journey from the years and weeks of build-up on both sides, to the minute-by-minute account of the siege and rescue. Recreating the dramatic conversations between negotiators and hostages, the cutting-edge intelligence work happening behind-the-scenes, and the media frenzy around this moment of international significance, The Siege is the remarkable story of what really happened on those fateful six days, and the first full account of a moment that forever changed the way the nation thought about the SAS – and itself. Angela Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story: This riveting true-crime drama probes the lives of the Menendez brothers, convicted of the brutal 1989 murders of their parents in Beverly Hills. Catriona Tell Me Everything - book - Elizabeth Strout Tell Me Everything is a hopeful, healing novel about new friendships, old loves, and the very human desire to leave a mark on the world. It's autumn in Maine, and the town lawyer Bob Burgess has become enmeshed in an unfolding murder investigation, defending a lonely, isolated man accused of killing his mother. He has also fallen into a deep and abiding friendship with the acclaimed writer, Lucy Barton, who lives down the road in a house by the sea with her ex-husband, William. Together, Lucy and Bob go on walks and talk about their lives, their fears and regrets, and what might have been. Lucy, meanwhile, is finally introduced to the iconic Olive Kitteridge, now living in a retirement community on the edge of town. Together, they spend afternoons in Olive's apartment, telling each other stories. Stories about people they have known – “unrecorded lives,” Olive calls them – reanimating them, and, in the process, imbuing their lives with meaning. Brimming with empathy and pathos, Tell Me Everything is Elizabeth Strout operating at the height of her powers, illuminating the ways in which our relationships keep us afloat. As Lucy says, “Love comes in so many different forms, but it is always love."

Officials in Lebanon say almost 500 people have been killed and more than 1,600 injured, after a wave of Israeli airstrikes in the south of the country. It's been the deadliest day of conflict across the border in nearly two decades. We speak to the Lebanese health minister, Firass Abiad, who says thousands of people are fleeing their homes and heading north to escape the bombardment. Also in the programme: We look ahead to Sir Keir Starmer's speech at the Labour Conference in Liverpool; and the tensions over the government's policy towards Israel.

As protesters were wrangled off the conference floor, The Chancellor reminded her audience they were not a party of protest but a party of power. They're now IN power. But Labour's timetable has created a vacuum into which bad headlines have been allowed to dominate. Are these early teething problems or does it tell us something more structural about a lack of vision?We talk to Chief Secretary to the Treasury, Darren Jones, and Tom Baldwin, Starmer's biographer.

The Chief Minister has said he trusts Labour and acknowledges that this Labour Government has gone further in protecting Gibraltar's interests than any before it. Speaking to Times Radio during the Labour Party Conference in Liverpool, Fabian Picardo said both the Labour and Conservative Governments had made mistakes in the past, but said Foreign Secretary David Lammy had insisted that Gibraltar should be represented at treaty talks. An emotional protest was held outside No.6 Convent Place this morning, where Maryam Senouni chained herself to the cannons outside the Chief Minister's office. Her 15 year old daughter Yamina suffers from Pura Syndrome; she is wheelchair bound and requires round the clock care. Kevin Ruiz has been speaking to Maryam, who says that Yamina's housing situation is having a major impact on her health and quality of life. Is your personal data safe? How do you look after your personal data online and on your mobile phone? Are you concerned your data might be vulnerable? Steven Sanchez from the Gibraltar Regulatory Authority explained what personal data is and how we should keep it safe. Jose Mari Ruiz brought us the latest sports news, including the Athletics Association's 5k season curtain on Saturday, the latest in darts and a chance to try out a new sport: pickleball. Seaweed might be a nuisance at the beach, or a tasty addition to a salad, but what about its medicinal properties? Nell Cava from the University of Gibraltar is researching its potential. And, Red Hot Chilli Peppers tribute band Otherside have released an original track in that style. Jonathan Sacramento and Daniel Ghio, the band's lead singer and bassist, told us about the inspiration behind the new single titled “Inside Your Mind”. Hosted on Acast.

Sir Keir Starmer was surely hoping Labour's conference would be a celebration of his landslide election victory - but with bitter briefings against his chief of staff Sue Gray coming from within No 10, more stories of ministers taking freebie gifts and a potential union rebellion over the winter fuel allowance - the new prime minister could face a very different reception in Liverpool. And on top of all these domestic issues, the war in the Middle East is on the brink of spilling over into a wider war - with many delegates at conference demanding a stronger position from this government on trying to bring about peace. On this special edition of the Political Fourcast from Labour Conference in Liverpool, Krishna Guru-Murthy is joined by Labour's Emily Thornberry, who has held several shadow cabinet roles over the years and has just become chair of the influential Foreign Affairs Select Committee, and Katy Balls - the political editor of The Spectator.  Produced by Calum Fraser, Shaheen Sattar, Silvia Maresca, Rob Thomson

Naomi and Alex zoom in on the Reform UK Party Conference and consider whether it is possible for Nigel Farage to professionalise the party and rid it of bigots - as he says he wants to do - and whether that makes it more or less dangerous to the health of our body politic.

Click here to back Quiet Riot on Ko-fi. Alex: “It's very hard to think there won't be a clash between those very big male egos at the centre of Reform UK. You have Richard Tice, ploughing in all the money, while getting none of the spotlight, Nigel Farage who has this overwhelming air of I-know-best, and then you have Lee Anderson - a recalcitrant blabbermouth who refuses to be reined in. At some point those big alphas will do bloody battle.” Naomi: “I sense that the mood is not going to be as jubilant as one would expect it to be, given it will be the first Labour Conference, post their landslide election win.” Naomi: “I hate packing for party conferences. And I am someone who likes packing.” Naomi's Guardian piece on the Canadian Reform Party's hostile takeover of the Conservatives, can be read here.

Palestinian-American, Yasmeen Serhan then leads a hugely illuminating conversation on the US Election and why so many Arab-Americans remain Uncommitted to Kamala Harris. IF YOU CAN AFFORD TO CONTRIBUTE, PLEASE DO. Click here to back Quiet Riot on Ko-fi. “It was a dull speech. Starmer promised change… but he also promised that politics would take up less space in our lives. So, I guess, what he's endeavouring to do is bring about this change in as non-dramatic a way as possible.” “For the first time I question the balance of the top team. Now that they're in government, I look around that top team and I think: who is the risk-taker there? I see a lot of risk-averse people. But if the situation is as dire as they describe, they need someone who will take a few risks.” “Democrats and people who are supportive of Harris/Walz need to get it out of their heads that they can threaten voters by saying ‘my opponent is insane'. That is not a good get-out-the-vote strategy. You can't fit that on a bumper sticker.” “As a Palestinian-American, speaking to other Palestinian-Americans, this is such an emotional issue. You can't tell them they must vote for a ticket that may just continue what we've been seeing. You can't ask them to sign off on a policy that may kill their family members.” CALLS TO ACTION Yasmeen's writing can be found here. The Labour Conference list of exhibitors is here.

Labour Conference Abridged | 2023

I've got a tumour on my spine which I'm having removed, so I won't be working for a bit. I'm going to record some extra episodes of the show to cover the time before I return and maybe replay some of my favourite interviews from the back catalogue. I'll come back and I'll be fine, the shows will return at The Duchess Theatre and my tour will happen next year. Cheers! Buy Lewis's brilliant book 'Left for Dead?
