Episode Details

Lib Dem commentator Mathew Hulbert and former Tory defence adviser Chris Newton are joined once again by Conservative commentator and councillor Matthew Goodwin-Freeman. This week, they unpack the extraordinary resignations of Defence Secretary John Healey and Armed Forces Minister Al Carns, whose dramatic departures over military spending have plunged Keir Starmer into the gravest crisis of his premiership to date and reignited speculation about Labour's leadership future. The panel also examines the fallout from the horrific Belfast knife attack, and the anti-immigration riots unrest that followed. Finally, they turn their attention to the Liberal Democrats' strategy review. So grab a drink, pick a side, and join the conversation as Political Frenemies takes on the biggest stories shaping Britain this week.
