A frantic week in UK politics, that started with the sacking of Suella Braverman and the shock return of David Cameron, took another huge twist as the Supreme Court ruled that the Government's plan to send asylum seekers to Rwanda was unlawful. Rishi Sunak however came out fighting, announcing an emergency bill to keep the policy alive.Plenty then for Nish and Coco to get their teeth stuck into with guest, LBC presenter and “conscience of liberal Britain” James O'Brien. His book ‘How they broke Britain' features a cast of nefarious characters, including Cameron himself - how suitable is he for the role of Foreign Secretary? Also in the firing line is the right-wing media and Paul Dacre in particular, while we also learn about the less well-known shadowy cabal of conservative think tanks and the tactics they employ to influence public opinion. But is Jeremy Corbyn worthy of a place on James' shit list?Plus why Nish and James are ‘disaster capitalists', Nish makes a shock news hat admission, and we have a bumper heroes and villains, as James weighs in with his selections. Find out what ITV has done to upset Nish, and why Coco puts James to shame by nominating 44,000 heroes!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/podsavetheworldGuest:James O'Brien, LBC radio presenter, and author of ‘How they broke Britain'Audio credits:ITV Breakfast/Edinburgh TV FestivalITV Studios/@NigelFarageparliamentlive.tvTalk TV

In-depth profiles from award-winning journalist Michael Crick, formerly of Newsnight, Panorama and Channel 4. In our first edition: Few newspaper editors wield as much power as the Daily Mail's Paul Dacre. Feared and courted by politicians, he has imposed his singular vision of Britain on successive governments – while sometimes stretching the law in pursuit of justice. What makes Dacre tick? What does he want? And how might this epic career end? WARNING: Contains explicit language. “The problem for the political classes is that the Mail is better at what it does than they are at what they do.” — David Yelland “Tony Blair once said that the problem with Britain is, everyone's a bit Daily Mail before they've had their breakfast.” — Adrian Addison “The Daily Mail frightens people, in politics, sport, entertainment and business. They don't want to get on the wrong side of Paul Dacre.” — David Yelland Mugshots was written and produced by Michael Crick and Jet Gerbertson. Additional research by Mathilda Waters.

Harry Mount is an author, journalist, and editor of The Oldie magazine. The monthly British title describes itself as a “light-hearted alternative to a press obsessed with youth and celebrity.” A former New York correspondent for The Daily Telegraph who remains a regular contributor to The Spectator, Daily Mail, and Evening Standard, he became editor of The Oldie in 2014, following the untimely death of his predecessor Alexander Chancellor. In this in-depth interview, Harry reflects on the magazine's upcoming 30th anniversary, and how it's “stood the test of time”, always staying true to its original aim of being “jokey, funny, cynical, and aimed predominantly at old people”; shares his surprise at how enthusiastically his readership has embraced the move to digital, with the website, app and podcast all popular; and discusses his close-up experience of working with two “Fleet Street legends”, Charles Moore and Paul Dacre - praising the former's “meticulous” work and the latter for his “sixth sense” when selecting stories which matter to readers.

Last week’s EU:UK vaccine stand-off put Ursula von der Leyen squarely in the spotlight, but what makes the President of the European Commission tick?

Covid is inescapable and as rumours of a Tory backbench rebellion over renewal of the Coronavirus Act grow there's been a lot of focus on how Sweden responded to the pandemic. Lesley takes a good, hard look at this and suggests that other Nordic nations, in particular Finland, may provide a bett er model for Scotland and the UK. Mike Russell wrote a column in the National over the weekend praising Lesley for her new book, Huts. A place beyond. Mike agreed that reform of land ownership was essential to the creation of a fairer Scotland. However he suggested that this was only possible post independence. We, to no one's surprise, respectfully disagree, and wonder just what's stopping the SNP government from taking action now. Believe in Scotland held a virtual conference over the weekend. Organised by Gordon MacIntyre-Kemp it featured Keith Brown, Lorna Slater, Stuart Cosgrove and oor Lesley. Was it,yet another talking shop, or the sign of a vibrant DIY spirit among the broader Yes movement? The media has been full of the story that Charles Moore is being lined up to become chair of the BBC and Paul Dacre to head up Ofcom. Steve Baker claimed that they represented "moderate conservativism". I take a wee keek at Moore's track record of "moderation" and we reflect on the history of previous, controversial, appointments. All this plus, our radio studio memories, Vitamin D, my golf travails, and an Italian proverb that may leave some men sitting cross legged.

Will Davies joins PTO to talk about the possible emergence of a UK equivalent of Fox News, what that might do to UK politics, and why breaking into broadcasting is so important for right wing media owners such as Rupert Murdoch. We also talked about whether in the years preceding the Brexit vote the left should have paid more attention to the ideology and attitudes being fostered by people such as Paul Dacre, former editor for the Daily Mail - rather than the more obvious faces of the neoliberal economic revolution of the 1980s and 90s.

Media news and analysis, with presenter Olly Mann, broadcast consultant Paul Robinson and journalist Nastaran Tavakoli-Far.Could the I'm A Celebrity grand final be a mere warm up to the Brexit debate? We discuss the many ways broadcasters have tried to make the political debates palatable to British viewers. Also on the programme: why freelancers in radio may force a change in pay, how Mark Zuckerberg's year got a little bit worse, and why another crop of freesheets have bitten the bullet.Plus, the panel talk Netflix's new Roald Dahl commission, Paul Dacre's parting shot at his old enemies at the Guardian... and in the Media Quiz, we test our pundits knowledge of the lighter stories of the week.A PPM Production, produced by Rebecca Grisedale-Sherry.

In the wake of Britain's 2017 General Election, Liberal Democrat leader Tim Farron resigned from his post, citing the pressures of reconciling his evangelical Christian faith with the commitments of political leadership, illustrated by the questions he faced throughout the campaign on his attitudes to homosexuality. Two years earlier, days after becoming leader, a tweet appeared on the @timfarron Twitter account that he claimed was a malicious hack, raising concerns about a process called chemical leaching having adverse affects on the sexuality of fish and frogs. In this exclusive, and no doubt highly fictionalised, radio play - free of charge for the masses - Reel Politik chart the course of Farron's pre-leadership career, stripping away inconvenient facts to find the underlying "ecstatic truth" behind the man, the life, and the life's work. Whilst we reiterate much of the play has little or no basis in reality -indeed, the story, all names, characters, and incidents portrayed in this production are fictitious. No identification with actual persons (living or deceased), places, buildings, and products is intended or should be inferred - underlying it is an historical account of British liberal politics in the last three decades, and how it sank into its present malaise. Written and produced by Tom Foster & Jack Frayne-Reid. Starring Tom Foster as Tim Farron, with Jack Frayne-Reid, alongside Laura Jolyon Tidd and Yair Rice, as all supporting characters. Songs by Jack Frayne-Reid, with additional music by Tom Foster & Dominic Menham. Executive producer tom disso. Written and recorded throughout 2017-18.

Sermon by Canon David Hodgson Sunday 10th June 2018 Bible reading: Mark 3: 20 -35 Introduction: When it was announced last week that Paul Dacre was retiring as editor of the Daily Mail there have been few retirement announcements that have provoked such a wide range of reactions. To some, he was a “true icon”. To Lord Rothermere he was “the greatest Fleet Street editor of his generation” – but then Rothermere owns the Daily Mail! To Labour Lord Adonis “it seems like a moment of national liberation. This influence has been so negative on our public life for 25 years.” To Conservative MP Nicholas Soames “It’s impossible to overestimate Dacre’s poison at The Mail - no man can be called a ‘great’ editor who permits the headline that the Judges are the ‘Enemies of the People’”. Those reactions to Paul Dacre’s retirement are a useful reminder that the idea of news as neutral – or that news media simply report the facts of events- is definitely a fantasy..

Media news and analysis, with Olly Mann and this week's guests Talkback's Leon Wilson and former Discovery exec Prof. Lis Howell.The panel discuss how Paul Dacre's departure will affect the Daily Mail, what the secret sauce is in Love Island's success, and allegations surrounding local TV provider 'That's TV'.Also on the programme, we field questions from Audioboom clients to exec Ruth Fitzsimons, and what Jeremy Vine is doing at the helm of The Wright Stuff - as well as continuing his Radio 2 show.AND in the Media Quiz, our guests match the pundit to the network in the battle of World Cup broadcasters.A PPM Production, produced by Rebecca Grisedale-Sherry.

Tim Shipman is Political Editor of the Sunday Times. A national newspaper journalist for nearly twenty years, he was previously the Deputy Political Editor of the Daily Mail, and Washington Correspondent for the Sunday Telegraph. In this in-depth interview, he shares his front-row seat at the ongoing battle for Brexit and the recent bungled general election, with daily life dealing with all the major players - both on and off the record; observes that during the days of Blair and Brown people at least knew what the rules of the game were, and nowadays no one does; reveals what it was like to work for the likes of Paul Dacre and Richard Desmond; discusses how social media has irrevocably altered not only how politics is done, but how its covered too; and stares into his crystal ball to answer the biggest questions of the moment - how long can Theresa May stay as Prime Minister, and could Corbyn actually win?

Joe and Marie are joined by TalkRADIO's breakfast show host, Julia Hartley-Brewer. Julia discusses the Trump/Kim summit, the EU Withdrawal Bill and Brexit, Paul Dacre's departure from the Mail, and which reality TV show she'd like to go on.

What happens to art under socialism? There are scraps of murky conversation across the internet and a body of old theory, but people aren't talking about it a lot, so we do. Then we talk about co-ops, what they are, what they do, and how they might help industry to navigate late stage capitalism.   And in headlines: Victoria has socialists, the Libs have failed to launch their anti-charity sedition law Trojan horse, Paul Dacre's been hidden in the attic after several unchecked years of coating the kitchen walls in poo, and good news for s'wits everywhere, another rickety Elder Scrolls game is coming sometime in the next decade.   Bonus game: Through fatigue or incorrect word selection, Kieran wildly mis-judges at least three spans of time - see if you can spot them all!

Juliet and Terence wave goodbye to Paul Dacre; announce their World Cup predictions (uhoh); and reveal their addiction to passing fads and crazes. Plus four great tracks of music, as always...

Want to party like it’s 1999? Then don’t watch this movie! This week we’re disappointed by forgettable late 90s mediocrity bomb Never Been Kissed. We also talk Paul Dacre, SOLO: A Star Wars Story, Seinfeld, turning 30, how we can secretly stay in the EU after Brexit, and we give an update on the #CageChallenge prize.

No sooner had we pressed "stop" on recording Wednesday's show than all sorts of bizarre events unfolded. Brexit cheerleader Paul Dacre announced his retirement from editing the Daily Mail, David Davis went through another pantomime resignation threat… and Boris Johnson's attempts to get sacked reached new heights of absurdity. "Pro bono publico, no meltdown" – really?So Ian and producer Andrew headed to London's lovely Hyde Park (pubs are too noisy) to quickly get it all down so you don't have to wait a week. Forgive our dodgy sound quality – we thought you'd want it as quick as we could get it to you. Enjoy. "Confidence is a preference for what is known as… PARK CAST."

Why is everyone obsessed with free speech on university campuses? And who is it that makes The Daily Mail so toxic? Saskia takes the Free Speech University Rankings to task, Chantelle decries Paul Dacre, and Tissot reminds us that social media and the far right are changing political conversations. As usual, we are a bit sweary, a bit ranty, and always ready to challenge the status quo ✊

Plus: The European Research Group’s latest punishment beating for Theresa May. Peace in Northern Ireland gets thrown on the Brexit bonfire. Can new anti-Brexit party Renew move the needle?

Slip on some earphones and walk off that turkey in the company of John Plunkett – as he tests the panel on their knowledge of another dramatic year in the UK media

John Plunkett and Dan Sabbagh unwrap Lord Patten's Christmas present a whole month early and find that Lord Hall is the man taking over the BBC in March 2013

The BBC has announced its proposals for "Delivering Quality First", a strategy to cut twenty percent of the BBC's spending over the next five years. No BBC channels will be scrapped but there are concerns that the savings could overstretch resources and erode the quality of BBC programmes. Steve Hewlett hears about the decisions from the BBC's director of policy and strategy, John Tate. The BBC's proposals include big cuts to local radio and reductions in budgets for network radio although Radio 4 will be protected more than others. Radio critic Gillian Reynolds explains why she fears the cuts to BBC radio are worse than they seem. The Daily Mail's editor in chief Paul Dacre has addressed the Leveson Inquiry into phone hacking, calling for continued self regulation of a press which he said is "vastly better behaved" now than it was when he started working in journalism. The Guardian's media correspondent Dan Sabbagh, who was at the seminar, picks out some of Paul Dacre's main suggestions. According to a report commissioned by the BBC executive, the corporation pays fees of about £10 million a year to Sky to carry BBC channels. The report says this is an unusual set-up as, in many countries, the opposite is true and satellite broadcasters pay terrestrial channels for their programmes. In the light of the recent budget cuts, John Tate tells Steve Hewlett the BBC should stop the payments to Sky and spend the money on local radio and BBC Four instead. Sky says the payments are a fair and proportionate contribution towards its running costs.The producer is Simon Tillotson.

This week Sue Lawley's castaway is one of Britain's most powerful newspaper men - Paul Dacre, editor of the Daily Mail. He was brought up in a household where news, and the coverage of it, was a daily topic of debate - his late father was a correspondent on the Daily Express - working variously as showbusiness editor, New York correspondent and foreign editor. His father's influence was tremendous and Paul Dacre says he can't remember a time when he didn't want to be a journalist and, in truth, an editor. He studied English at Leeds University but confesses to missing lectures in Anglo Saxon in favour of working on the student newspaper. Paul Dacre edited the student paper while Jack Straw was president of the students' union and, after graduating, he joined the Daily Express in Manchester. He became New York correspondent for the Express before being poached by the Daily Mail. He went on to edit the Evening Standard and turned down the editorship of The Times to take up the editorship of the Daily Mail. Away from the hectic world of newspapers, Paul Dacre spends his time at home, tending his garden and enjoying family life.
