Chopper's Politics

著者: The Telegraph
  • サマリー


  • The Telegraph's weekly politics podcast, presented by Christopher "Chopper" Hope. The podcast has interviews with top politicians and commentators and analysis from the Telegraph’s Westminster team.

    Chopper's Politics is a must listen for those who want to understand British politics, delving into various aspects of policy, key players, and the internal movements of Westminster’s political parties. With a focus on the Conservative Party (Tories), the podcast examines the party’s policies, strategies, and ideologies. The podcast offers insights into prominent figures within the party, including Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Boris Johnson.

    With a keen eye on the ever-evolving political landscape, the podcast explores the impact of the Red Wall - the traditionally Labour-supporting areas in the North of England that shifted allegiance to the Conservatives in recent elections - and the dynamics between the Conservatives and the Labour Party, led by Keir Starmer.

    In addition to Conservative and Labour politics, the podcast delves into the dynamics of other political parties like the Liberal Democrats and the Scottish National Party providing analysis and discussions on their policies and strategies.

    The podcast widens its scope to include discussions on the political climate in London, with a particular focus on the leadership of Mayor Sadiq Khan. It delves into the intricacies of Westminster, the seat of British political power, and examines the notion of the Westminster Bubble, where decisions and discussions can sometimes appear disconnected from the realities of the wider population.

    With a strong emphasis on policy analysis, "Chopper's Politics" provides a platform for informed conversations surrounding British elections and their implications on topics such as geopolitics, foreign policy, international relations, and the evolving role of the United Kingdom in the global arena.

  • Head vs heart
    2021/03/24

    Former Scotland Secretary David Mundell calls for those in favour of keeping the United Kingdom... well, united, to not shy away from sharing the "emotional" reasons for the union. He joins Christopher Hope to react to First Minister Nicola Sturgeon's vote of no confidence triumph, to delve into the impact of the Salmond-Sturgeon row on upcoming elections, and to lay out why he believes there can't be a Great Britain without Scotland. 

    Also on the podcast: former Attorney General Sir Geoffrey Cox on why he thinks some of the reaction to the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill is "hysterical", and London editor of German newspaper die Welt, Stefanie Bolzen on the EU's latest spat over the AstraZeneca vaccine.

  • One year of lockdown chaos in 26 minutes
    2021/03/19

    The Telegraph’s Gordon Rayner has spent recent weeks deconstructing the government’s actions in the crucial early stages of the pandemic. He’s been given the inside track from Cabinet ministers, sat down with members of SAGE and grilled government advisers to find out what really happened this time last year - or more accurately, what went wrong. On this week’s Chopper’s Politics he lets Christopher Hope into those conversations, and decides whether more could have been done, or if hindsight really is 20/20. 

    Are ministers willing to accept that the UK should have locked down earlier? What effect did keeping borders open have on case rates? And is “following the science” always the right approach? All is revealed within.

  • Lockdown's first birthday
    2021/03/17

    A grim anniversary, but one former Conservative cabinet minister Esther McVey is hoping to turn into something positive. She joins Christopher Hope to tell listeners how she's planning to bring some light to March 23rd - one year on from the UK's first coronavirus lockdown - and whether it's fair to credit Brexit with the UK's speedy vaccine rollout. Also on the podcast: vice chairman of the 1922 committee, Sir Charles Walker tells Chopper why he's encouraging fellow MPs to vote against increased powers on coronavirus restrictions, and why his relationship with the state will never be the same following the UK's pandemic response.
