Episode Details

Political Frenemies is back with sparks flying as Lib Dem activist Mathew Hulbert and former Tory adviser Chris Newton welcome once again Tory councillor and campaigner Matthew Goodwin-Freeman for a fast-paced dive into Westminster chaos and local fallout. The trio react to Robert Jenrick’s jaw-dropping defection to Reform UK, spar over Labour’s abrupt U-turn on digital ID, and unpack reports of delayed local council elections that could reshape the political map. Add in the Liberal Democrats’ latest announcement on A&E, and you’ve got a sharp, combative, and often funny clash of perspectives that cuts through the spin and gets to the political fault lines of the week.
