I&#39;m back off holiday and there was an absolute doozy of a story to climb into as a govt minister turfed out some tenants as she was about to bring through legislation making that illegal! In other news Nigel Farage has been on his &#39;Britain is F**cked&#39; Tour and there have been some disputes over his numbers. And Kemi Badenoch tried to improve her public perception by admitting being a snitch??

Had to do another episode ahead of going away until next Friday, not least because Ole Slippery Starmer&#39;s Palestine plan seems to be unravelling quickly - even for him. Not just that, Peter Kyle has been out calling other politicians nonces while young people seem to be breaking for Jeremy and Nigel. I ask &#39;why are young women so easily seduced by the far Left?&#39;

A GOOD TIME TO INVADE - with Dominic Frisby

<div class="text-line-clamp text-line-clamp-3 balanced-p fs-8 text-muted text-break">
WMPT favourite Dom Frisby was back on the show to discuss Starmer&#39;s big talk on defence. Do the policies match up? And should we show our kids rubbish war films? We also talk about whether the Left teasing Trump led to a rise in steel tariffs (and why we love the way he says &#39;nasty&#39;). In the Patreon only section we ask if the French are losing their cool as they ban smoking on beaches.

Lots of breaking news since Wednesday so I got my teeth into the growing beef between the PM and Nigel. We also consider Robert Jenrick going full vigilante and scoring himself a viral hit. Over in the states Donald is getting a bit thin-skinned over TACO while his former BFF Elon is off to pastures new.

I get into some of the murmurings of discontent around the Labour Party (including some gossip I heard about the chancellor!)

In the Patreon only I discuss a brand new book about the cover up around Joe Biden&#39;s health.

TRUMP TARIFF TURMOIL CONTINUES with Simon Evans
</h5>
<div class="text-line-clamp text-line-clamp-3 balanced-p fs-8 text-muted text-break">
Simon Evans joins us this week in top form as we ask whether the Right might get a bit eggy with Donald messing up their money. We also look at the Govt&#39;s strategy for men&#39;s health and ask whether dying younger is actually cool. In the Patreon only we look at Labour&#39;s tiny discounts to the motor industry and generally bitch about Ed Miliband.

BREAKING NEWS #36 - Trump, Tariffs and a Tiny Piece of Cardboard
</h5>
<div class="text-line-clamp text-line-clamp-3 balanced-p fs-8 text-muted text-break">
So Liberation Day finally came and the biggest surprise was the size of Trump&#39;s piece of cardboard. The UK didn&#39;t escape, but is it a win if you got punched the face while your mate got kicked in the balls? All this and more gets the WMPT treatment.

I share my thoughts on Labour&#39;s Spring Statement. Is Rachel Reeves just Starmer&#39;s voice on x 1.5? Can they blame global headwinds or their own hot air? Should they focus on child poverty or the fact Mel Stride said &#39;Fiddled&#39;. All these questions and more will be answered.

Following the success of Adolescence, there&#39;s been a long overdue discussion of the challenges facing boys and young men. Sadly, most mainstream discussion sees it as a drinking game where you mention Andrew Tate. I discuss the real problems and why they&#39;re so fearful to go near them (I also chat about Starmer being irritated at PMQS &amp; why Putin might be mugging off Trump).

BREAKING NEWS #30 - Reform Keep Storming
</h5>
<div class="text-line-clamp text-line-clamp-3 balanced-p fs-8 text-muted text-break">
One of those mad news weeks, so here&#39;s a breaking news ep. I discuss Starmer being accused of breaking lockdown rules, the economy shrinking, Reform rising, the SNP having to deny a plan to ban cats and Donald Trump creating about eighteen headlines a minute.

THE KEIR&#39;S SPEECH - with Iain Dale 
</h5>
<div class="text-line-clamp text-line-clamp-3 balanced-p fs-8 text-muted text-break">
Iain Dale joins me to take a deep-dive on an absolute Pandora&#39;s box of embarrassing scoops on the Labour Party. From Keir getting voice training to Angela calling Prince Andrew a n**ce we gleefully climb into the juicy bits. We also look at the mysterious disappearance of Sadiq&#39;s pronouns and in the Patreon only section we walk Trumpy tariffs.

BREAKING NEWS #29 - Rachel&#39;s Growing Pains
</h5>
<div class="text-line-clamp text-line-clamp-3 balanced-p fs-8 text-muted text-break">
Following Rachel&#39;s big speech about growth I get into the reeds of Labour on their knees begging the City to like them. I discuss whether she should in fact go for four runways, why Labour politicians shouldn&#39;t try to sound like Trump &amp; why Reeves Vs Sadiq is like Alien Vs Predator.

KEIR &amp; DONALD, THE BROMANCE BEGINS? - with Rachel Fairburn
</h5>
<div class="text-line-clamp text-line-clamp-3 balanced-p fs-8 text-muted text-break">
The lovely Rachel Fairburn joins us this week to discuss Starmer finally getting a name-check from the Donald. We also suggest weird ideas for growth to Rachel from accounts. There&#39;s a bit of men&#39;s mental health (with jokes I promise) and in the Patreon only we ask what age should you ban smartphones from.

</h5>
<div class="text-line-clamp text-line-clamp-3 balanced-p fs-8 text-muted text-break">
Triggernometry&#39;s Francis Foster joins me to look back at an eventful start to the big Trump sequel. From the Village People to accusations of Nazi salutes we deep dive on all things inauguration. Then we ask how the hell Keir Starmer gets in Trump&#39;s good books, while also scratching our heads at Brexiteers starting to sound like Remainers.

BREAKING NEWS #28 - Kemi Badass
</h5>
<div class="text-line-clamp text-line-clamp-3 balanced-p fs-8 text-muted text-break">
As (loosely) promised here&#39;s an extra episode. It&#39;s all about the laydeez this week as I discuss Yvette Cooper&#39;s petty fudge on grooming gangs, Bridget Phillipson continuing to be the most irritating person in government &amp; why Kemi needs to do some action-hero stuff.
