🎧 NEW PODCAST EPISODE Episode 134 – UK Reform In this episode, Andy and Roger take on a listener question from George in the UK, who’s puzzled by political divergence across the Anglosphere. Why is Farage resurgent in Britain while progressive governments cling on elsewhere? The lads give it a go—Roger reluctantly, Andy enthusiastically (with his best Rory Stewart impersonation). They explore why Australia’s compulsory and preferential voting systems might be the unsung heroes of political stability, contrast the class divide in the UK with Australia’s anti-elitist ethos, and suggest the Brits may just be a little too fond of protest voting. There’s also time for a good old whinge about gloomy post-war British architecture and a solid plug for Australian-style democracy. Naturally, they manage to reference Westminster real estate and Tommy Robinson-adjacent YouTube videos along the way. No royalists were harmed in the making of this podcast.
