Dan and Carl explore the final days of the Battle of Makerfield.

Voters head to the polls tomorrow in Makerfield for what could be the most consequential by-election in modern British history. If Andy Burnham wins by a significant margin, he will be heralded as the man Labour need to beat Reform nationally – and Starmer could be forced out within days.Yet the Prime Minister has come out fighting, warning Burnham that now is not the time for a challenge. What should we expect from what promises to be a febrile 72 hours in British politics? Will Starmer's deposition be conducted with decorum, or will it descend into a bloodbath?Plus: with Keir Starmer travelling back from the G7 today, parliament saw Deputy Prime Minister's Questions. Amid Labour's leadership turmoil, David Lammy went head to head with the shadow energy secretary, Claire Coutinho, herself tipped to be a future Tory chancellor. How did they both fare?Isabel Hardman speaks to Tim Shipman and pollster Scarlett MaguireProduced by Patrick Gibbons and Oscar Edmondson.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

Westminster is braced for the Makerfield by-election at the end of this week but – as we get closer to polling day – opinion seems to have shifted. While at the start it looked as though Reform could challenge in the seat, the Andy Burnham factor appears to have changed the picture, and most are predicting that Labour's prince across the water will make landfall.One person familiar with the ground game is Gawain Towler, a longtime ally of Nigel Farage and now a member of the Reform UK board. He speaks to Noa Hoffman about why the contest is not over and the various tactics his party is using to beat Burnham.Produced by Oscar Edmondson and Patrick Gibbons.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

Ever since conquistadores claimed Taino land in the name of their Catholic God and New England Puritans formed their strictly Protestant “city on a hill,” religion has been central to American life. Even as some found religious freedom—Rhode Island welcomed the Quakers, Jews, and Baptists that Massachusetts expelled as dissenters—indigenous people and Africans forced into slavery struggled to protect their religious practices. With the constitutional separation of church and state, it fell to the American people to decide: would they sharpen religion's formidable powers of division, or reimagine its creative possibilities? In A God-Shaped Nation: Five Hundred Years of Religion in America (Atlantic Monthly Press, 2026) Brook Wilensky-Lanford follows this essential American tension from first contact through the 2024 election. This is an expansive history of extraordinary religious questions, told through the ordinary people who grappled with them. It is a story of defiance: Anne Hutchinson, preaching against Puritan clergy; Reform rabbi Isaac Mayer Wise serving soft-shell crab to his kosher guests at an 1883 banquet; and Wovoka, a Paiute man who envisioned the Ghost Dance movement, which persisted in the face of violent government repression at Wounded Knee. It is also a story of community: Millerites waiting together in vain for Jesus's return on a rainy October night in 1844; Chinese immigrants bringing Daoist and Buddhist gods to their California temples; Mormons pushing westward to build their “new Zion” in Utah. And in the last fifty years, it has been a story of muscular political power, as the religious right has sought to shape the present and paint the past in its own image. At a moment when religion penetrates even the most secular aspects of American life, understanding its history is more essential than ever before. “It is in history that the very human work of religion happens,” Wilensky-Lanford shows us, “and in ordinary time that even the most carved-in-stone tenets can and do change.” Brook Wilensky-Lanford is a religion writer, editor, and teacher. The author of Paradise Lust: Searching for the Garden of Eden, a New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice, and former managing editor of Killing the Buddha, her work has been published in The New York Times, The Guardian, The New Republic, and elsewhere. Currently the Associate Director of Sacred Writes Public Scholarship, she holds an MFA in Nonfiction Writing from Columbia University and a PhD in Religion in the Americas from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where she lives.

Whether it's your family, your team at work, your friend group, or fourteen pilgrims walking the coast of Portugal — every group goes through the same stages: form, norm, storm, reform, and break apart. This week Amy and Karla get specific about what that looked like on the Camino, and more importantly, what it revealed about each of them. Amy discovers she is almost always either at the front or the back of the pack — and never in the middle. Karla learns something powerful about leadership, louder voices, and the cost of avoiding conflict in the moment. And somewhere between a swamp detour, instant Nescafé, and the fastest pilgrim in the group, there is a genuinely useful framework for understanding why groups are hard, why they are worth it, and what you can learn about yourself when you are asked to move at someone else's pace. If you have ever struggled with being part of a group, leading one, or just surviving one — this episode is your people.   To learn more about group pilgrimages and spiritual direction, contact Karla Woggon, Director of Soul Sauntering:

6-15-2026: Wake Up Missouri with Randy Tobler, Stephanie Bell, John Marsh, and Producer Drake

DC EKG with Joe Grogan Episode 137: Tax Expenditures, 340 B Drug Pricing, and Kidney Donation Reform Air Date: June 15, 2026 Episode DescriptionIn this episode, Joe Grogan sits down with Dr. Ike Brannon, President of Capital Policy Analytics and Senior Fellow at the Jack Kemp Foundation, to discuss hidden tax expenditures, the 340 B drug pricing program, and innovative solutions to the kidney shortage crisis. Dr. Brannon brings decades of Capitol Hill experience, including roles as chief economist of the House Energy and Commerce Committee and senior advisor to Senator Orrin Hatch. He and co-author Tony LoSasso recently published groundbreaking research in Health Affairs Forefront arguing that the 340 B drug pricing program should be classified as a hidden tax expenditure costing the federal government 15 to 20 billion dollars annually. The conversation covers how the 340 B program evolved from providing discounted drugs to uninsured patients into a massive subsidy for nonprofit institutions with little benefit to poor patients. Dr. Brannon explains how the same drug acquired at a 340 B discount often results in full commercial copays for patients. Joe and Dr. Brannon explore other problematic tax expenditures including the mortgage interest deduction, employer health insurance exclusion, and credit union tax breaks. The episode pivots to Dr. Branons passionate work on kidney donation reform. Forty-five thousand Americans die annually from end stage renal failure due to kidney shortage, disproportionately affecting African Americans. Dr. Brannon advocates for fully reimbursing kidney donors for all expenses.

Industrial Development Authorities (IDAs) exist to give local officials the ability to promote economic development by awarding tax breaks to companies. Critics contend that many of the projects fail to deliver on promised job creation and push for greater accountability for performance. Ron Deutsch of New Yorkers for Fiscal Fairness and Reimagine Albany talks to Mark Dunlea of Hudson Mohawk Magazine about the largely unsuccessful efforts to enact reforms in the recent legislative session.

Seit der vergangenen Woche greift sie nun: die Reform des Gemeinsamen Europäischen Asylsystems. GEAS gilt seit dem 12. Juni EU-weit und damit auch in Deutschland. Die neuen Rechtsakte verändern die Asylverfahren grundlegend und fordern von den EU-Staaten Härte und Solidarität. Die Reform sollte Migration europäisch ordnen, doch die Praxis zeigt unterschiedliche Wirkungen: Grenzkontrollen, nationale Alleingänge, Abschreckung. Die Einigkeit über die Praxis ist instabil in Europa. So riskieren Staaten den Bruch mit Brüssel, um innenpolitisch Handlungsfähigkeit zu demonstrieren. Dazu kommen neben GEAS neue EU-Beschlüsse wie die Rückkehrverordnung und geplante Return-Hubs, die die öffentliche Debatte über Asyl weiter befeuern. Die Politik verspricht der Bevölkerung durch die Reform und Verordnungen bessere und schnellere Kontrolle, bewegt sich dabei juristisch aber auf dünnem Eis. Diskutiert wird außerdem, was moralisch und humanitär vertretbar ist. Denn was bedeutet all das für die geflüchteten Menschen? Und löst dieser politische Kurs die logistischen Probleme in den Kommunen? Wie kann der europäische Traum vom gemeinsamen Grenzmanagement umgesetzt werden? Und welche gesellschaftlichen und ethischen Werte stehen dabei auf dem Spiel? Darüber sprechen wir mit Svenja Niederfranke vom Zentrum für Migration der DGAP, mit dem Sprecher des Bayerischen Flüchtlingsrates, Hamado Dipama, und dem Asylexperten Daniel Thym. Außerdem zu Gast: Karl Kopp, Geschäftsführer von Pro Asyl, und Kerstin Schlögl-Flierl vom Deutschen Ethikrat. Podcast-Tipp: Kaffee, extra schwarz. Der Podcast mit Mansour und Mayer-Rüth: GEAS - kommt jetzt die Asylwende? Gespräch mit Prof. Ruud Koopmans Professor Ruud Koopmans ist Migrationsforscher an der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. Im neuen BR-Podcast "Kaffee, extra schwarz" sprechen der Autor Ahmad Mansour und der Journalist Oliver Mayer-Rüth mit ihm über GEAS. In knapp 30 Minuten beleuchten die beiden unterhaltsam, fundiert, provokant regelmäßig ein wichtiges Thema. https://www.ardsounds.de/episode/urn:ard:episode:1a8fec8fe02a6688/

UK needs a a strong liberal voice in the south to counter the predictable catastrophe of Farage and Reform In his latest Lowdown podcast, Nick Cohen talks to historian and author James Hawes about parallels between current political developments and fascist movements in the 1930s and 1970s. James compares Elon Musk's influence to that of Alfred Hugenberg in 1930s Germany, noting how both used media control to promote extreme right-wing parties. Nick and James discuss conservative establishment figures like Michael Grade at Ofcom were failing to enforce impartiality laws, how the government was unwilling to act against platforms promoting insurrection, and how the right-wing media landscape had shifted dramatically since the days when Enoch Powell was rejected by the Conservative Party. Hawes emphasises the need for a united liberal democratic front to oppose far-right parties like Farage's, warning that the first-past-the-post electoral system could allow Nigel Farage to become Prime Minister with less than a third of the vote if the left remained split. They conclude with calls for a "popular front" similar to those that successfully opposed fascists in the past, with both hosts expressing optimism that such a coalition could still be formed. The UK desperately needs a strong Liberal voice in the south to prevent Farage inflicting his second catastrophe on the UK after Brexit - a Reform government with the inevitable division, economic misery and national failure that would guarantee.Read all about it!

Former Armed Forces Minister Al Carnes made headlines when he followed Defence Secretary John Healey out the door — and now he's telling us exactly why. In a frank and at times fiery exchange with Julia Hartley-Brewer, Carnes lays bare the uncomfortable truth: Britain is preparing for the last war, not the next one, and the Treasury's refusal to meaningfully fund defence is leaving this country dangerously exposed.With Russia on the march, threats multiplying in the Middle East, and intelligence agencies warning of potential attack by 2030, Carnes argues that national security must become the central, cohering function of government — not an afterthought buried beneath fiscal rules. He also clashes head-on with Julia over welfare reform, the two-child benefit cap, youth unemployment, and whether Nigel Farage and Reform are offering real solutions or simply selling umbrellas in a storm of their own making.Then, veteran broadcaster and journalist Andrew Neil delivers his characteristically sharp verdict on the government's social media ban — sceptical, probing, and cutting straight to the heart of who's really responsible for protecting children online. He also takes aim at Keir Starmer's hollow posturing on the world stage, questions whether Andy Burnham is remotely ready for Number 10, and pays tribute to the late Roy Hattersley — a politician from an era when serious people did serious politics.Julia Hartley-Brewer broadcasts on Talk from Monday to Thursday, 10AM to 1PM.Available on YouTube and streaming platforms, along with DAB+ radio and your smart speaker.

The U.S. administration is keen to sign up more companies to drug pricing deals, and mandatory rules are on the way. But how will the midterm elections affect these and other healthcare policy issues? At RBC's Global Healthcare Conference, Hunter Hammond and Will Humphrey of Capstone's healthcare group offered insights on the direction of policy for the rest of the year and beyond. Key PointsMandatory Most Favored Nation pricing rules are likely to be contested in court.The FDA's initiatives to speed drug development are signals of its modernization intent.The U.S. is more likely to use incentives than sanctions to address mass in-licensing of Chinese innovation.The current program to extend access to GLP-1s could be a template for future breakthrough drugs.Democrat gains in the midterm elections would likely limit further hospital cuts.Introductions [00:08]Host Joe Coletti introduces highlights from the U.S. Healthcare Policy Panel at RBC's Global Healthcare Conference, featuring Hunter Hammond and Will Humphrey of Capstone's Healthcare Group. Midterm campaigning [00:40]In the run-up to the midterms, the U.S. administration will aim to focus on messaging about popular policies, such as cutting waste and fraud in Medicare and Medicaid.FDA changes [01:41]After turmoil in the FDA, new leadership is designed to promote stability. Recent moves to speed drug approvals are likely to continue and offer an important signal about FDA modernization. Chinese innovation [04:31]The administration may be uncomfortable with U.S. in-licensing of Chinese technologies, but it is more likely to respond with incentives than any attempt to block the practice.Drug pricing [06:17]Most Favored Nation mandatory pricing models have yet to be finalized and are likely to be challenged in court. Democrats will not support codification of MFN.Democrat priorities [08:08]Democratic gains in the midterms would have the effect of protecting hospitals from further cuts. Reform of 340B is unlikely, however.

Amazon's expansion into the LTL market is raising big questions across the transportation industry. In this episode, Craig Fuller, Tom Albrecht, and attorney Matt Leffler examine why Forward Air could be a strategic acquisition target for Amazon and what such a move would mean for carriers, brokers, and shippers. The conversation explores Forward Air's unique airport-to-airport network, the controversial Omni Logistics merger, and the legal battles that reshaped one of freight's most closely watched companies. The panel also breaks down Amazon's growing logistics ambitions and whether it can successfully build or buy its way into the LTL sector. Beyond M&A, the discussion turns to trucking safety, insurance requirements, freight fraud, FMCSA reforms, and the industry's ongoing struggle with outdated regulations. The hosts analyze proposed safety initiatives from the Truckload Carriers Association, debate higher insurance minimums, and discuss why stronger oversight of CDL training, ELD certification, and carrier registration could reshape the trucking landscape. ⁠Follow the Freight Expectations Podcast⁠ ⁠Other FreightWaves Shows⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

Silence isn't always empty; it can be information. In today's episode, “With Poetry and Money, What You Leave Out Shapes Everything,” host Jacquette breaks down the power of omission and explains why the things we don't say, don't buy, or don't react to can be just as powerful as the things we do. Poetry and money have more in common than you think, and the way you interpret the quiet moments can shape your entire lived experience. A silent choice is still a choice, and it can be the most intentional and powerful one you make.Want More?

Friends! Romans! Cuntrymen! It is indeed that time again for another serving of AI slop to vaguely describe the TWO JACKS PODCAST! This has been generated by Kimi K2.6 which is an AI model I've never heard of. It's offered with Perplexity Pro which I got for free for some reason. What a golden age of tokens we live in. Can't wait till they actually try to recoup costs on this shit. Enjoy! Jack the Insider and Hong Kong Jack unpack a striking set of political and cultural fault lines, led by One Nation's polling surge and what it says about protest voting, party decay and Australia's increasingly fragmented political mood. They also take aim at Labor's failure to tell a convincing economic story, debate whether Victorian Labor can survive the year, and argue that Australia's tobacco excise regime has become a textbook public policy disaster.Further on, the conversation ranges across Europe's latest move against Russians linked to the war, the resilience and ingenuity of Ukraine, British politics around Andy Burnham and Reform, and a lively sport finish featuring the Luke Sayers/AFL mess, Fremantle's flag credentials, and England cricket's latest self-inflicted drama.Timeline00:00:25 – Welcome back to The Two Jacks: Joel Hill, aka Jack the Insider, joins Hong Kong Jack and opens with weather chat from Hong Kong before previewing a politics-heavy episode.00:01:43 – One Nation tops the polling: the Jacks examine the headline poll, what a 31 percent primary vote means, and whether a One Nation-dominated conservative bloc is now thinkable.00:03:02 – Protest vote or something bigger? A story from regional Victoria sparks a discussion about grievance politics, capital gains reform, wage policy and why people may vote against their own economic interests.00:04:50 – The “preference cascade” theory: Hong Kong Jack argues voters often keep quiet about taboo political views until they realise the neighbours are thinking the same thing.00:06:52 – A Liberal-One Nation non-compete deal? The pair look at the idea that the Liberals could stop competing in some seats and why that would be a huge sign of weakness.00:08:20 – Cos Samaras' warning: if the Coalition is polling this badly, it is not negotiating with One Nation, it is begging.00:10:37 – Could Nationals simply defect? The discussion turns to whether National Party MPs in regional seats might eventually decide orange ties are safer than blue ones.00:12:46 – Three-cornered politics: Nick Cater's view gets a run as the Jacks argue the shape of the contest is still unfolding and hard to read.00:14:10 – Preferencing One Nation: would the Liberals burn their city vote if they formally put One Nation ahead of Labor?00:16:14 – Labor's messaging problem: Peter Wilkinson's advice prompts a broader argument about how governments need a visible plan, a narrative and a destination.00:18:06 – The Dan Andrews comparison: Joel argues Andrews' strength was simple political communication, while Albanese's government seems unable or unwilling to tell a coherent story.00:21:01 – Budget politics and drift: was there a better path available to Labor, and why has the government struggled to sell even its own reforms?00:23:58 – Productivity, growth and living standards: Hong Kong Jack says the government should have framed the budget around national renewal rather than small-target politics.00:26:14 – One Nation and immigration: the Jacks debate how major parties and commentators should respond without driving more voters into Hanson's camp.00:30:40 – The value of dissent: Duncan McNabb's point about advisors who disagree leads to a broader conversation about whether modern political offices still tolerate honest internal argument.00:33:35 – How do you fight One Nation? They discuss why calling voters stupid or racist is politically useless, even when the commentary class is tempted to do exactly that.00:37:36 – Selling immigration differently: from postwar migration to Vietnamese Australians, the conversation turns to which migration success stories still resonate with voters.00:41:13 – Victoria in trouble: a fresh poll suggests Victorian Labor is in deep strife, while One Nation's rise adds another layer of chaos to the state election.00:42:53 – Should Jacinta Allan go? The Jacks debate whether replacing the Premier now would help, hurt or simply arrive too late to matter.00:46:24 – One Nation's Victorian surge: from almost nowhere to the mid-20s in polling, but without the party structure usually needed to convert support into seats.00:47:40 – Candidate risk and the ground game: why weak party organisation can hurt One Nation at election time, even if the polling looks enormous.00:50:27 – If the Liberals win, then what? The likely debt clean-up and the danger that victory could carry its own political trap.00:52:22 – Illicit tobacco and failed policy: Joel calls Australia's tobacco excise regime one of the worst examples of public policy failure in the country.00:56:40 – The black market takes over: the Jacks argue the war on smoking has instead delivered a bonanza for organised crime.00:59:14 – Should the excise be cut? They weigh the case for slashing prices to drag smokers back into the legal market.01:01:50 – Public health paternalism: a broader swipe at the regulatory mindset behind smoking, gambling and alcohol policy.01:03:17 – Europe gets tougher on Russians: Ursula von der Leyen's latest move leads into a bigger conversation about the Ukraine war and Russian displacement.01:04:30 – Ukraine's ingenuity: the Jacks discuss low-cost drone warfare, battlefield adaptation and why Ukraine has confounded predictions from the start.01:07:25 – Pressure inside Russia: Putin's security paranoia, economic strain and the social cost of a long war all come under the microscope.01:09:57 – UK politics watch: Andy Burnham, Reform, Restore Britain and what the right-wing vote split could mean.01:12:28 – AFL mess: the Luke Sayers saga, draft affidavits, the AFL integrity unit and a governing body that seems determined to make things worse.01:15:53 – On-field footy is still thriving: despite the suits, the AFL product keeps selling, and Fremantle gets a big wrap as the form side of the competition.01:18:13 – England v New Zealand: a dodgy wicket, an underwhelming contest, and why Australia may not fear Ollie Robinson all that much.01:20:14 – Ben Stokes and the nightclub curfew saga: England's leadership drama deepens after a night out turns into another avoidable mess.01:23:37 – Is Stokes near the end? The show closes on England's captaincy issues, Stokes' physical decline and whether he will even make it to the next Ashes.01:32:55 – Wrap-up: the Jacks preview next week's likely topics, including UK by-elections, and sign off.Episode info blurbJack the Insider and Hong Kong Jack dive into One Nation's extraordinary polling surge, the Coalition's flirtation with preference deals, Labor's chronic messaging failures and the warning signs flashing in Victoria. They also tackle Australia's exploding illicit tobacco trade, Europe's tougher line on Russia, the war in Ukraine, Andy Burnham's chances in Britain, AFL governance chaos and another very English cricket mess.

Joseph Sternberg explains China's reform of the Hukou residency system, which has limited internal migration since the 1950s. By granting migrants access to urban social services like healthcare and education, Beijing aims to reduce high household saving rates and stimulate domestic consumption to revitalize its slowing, multi-trillion dollar communist national economy.

For the second week in a row, PMQs comes in light of a disturbing instance of violent crime. Last week, ministers were recoiling at the shocking bodycam footage from Henry Novak's murder, and this week comes in the context of a knife attack by a Sudanese asylum seeker in Belfast.Kemi Badenoch was impressive again, not just in condemning the Belfast violence but also pressing the PM on the much-delayed defence investment plan. She seems to have completed a remarkable turnaround in her fortunes: she's polling well, looks much more assured and is taking the fight to Labour and Reform. As she starts to win over the party and the commentariat, can she win over the country?Oscar Edmondson speaks to Tim Shipman and Isabel Hardman.Produced by Oscar Edmondson.To hear Tim's interview with Kemi, go to spectator.com/kemiBecome a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

We're at a pivotal moment in world geopolitics. Increasingly the masks and the gloves are both off - but it's not a binary choice any more between two sets of suits in slightly different coloured ties: now we have the right showing its true colours  - and a chance for the progressive majority in this country to find its feet and lead us towards a genuinely thoughtful, emotionally literate, high-bandwidth politics that ditches the toxic tribalism and instead lays the ground for a future that could actually work. We're joined this week by Neal Lawson, co-founder and Executive Director of the progressive pressure group, Compass; and Rupert Read, Co-Director of the Climate Majority Project. Neal is a member of the Labour Party, and Rupert of the Green party and we came together to discuss the forthcoming by-election in Makerfield, where Andy Burnham, Mayor of Greater Manchester is standing as a candidate, with a view to standing for leadership of the Labour Party if he wins.  His main challenger is the Reform party led by Nigel Farage.  The Greens are newly invigorated after their recent win in the Gorton and Denton by-election in Manchester, so there has been a lot of conversation in progressive circles as to whether the Greens should step away to give Burnham a clear run. This seemed a good moment to have a vigorous conversation - to explore the possibilities and potential and the routes forward should Burnham win.

Kemi Badenoch has vowed to reform the Equality Act in what is viewed as an attempt to win back support from Reform voters. The Conservative leader, who also served as equalities minister from 2020 to 2022, wants to scrap the public sector equality duty – a legal requirement that forces public institutions to actively consider how their decisions affect equality.
