Mat and Chloe Farand from DeSmog Uk were our guests on today’s show. They have been doing some incredible reporting on the links between the US climate denial lobby and the web of pro-Brexit think tanks like the IEA and the Tax Payers Alliance. We had a really interesting chat about the reporting they have been doing, the implications of these think tanks holding influence with the UK government, as well as the political and economic issue of dealing with climate change.

Andrew Lewin, the head of Labour Remain, was our guest on today's show. He has been campaigning to ensure that there will be a meaningful debate on the Labour Party Brexit policy at this summer's Labour Party conference. We had a great conversation about the possibility that there could be a 'People's Vote' on the Brexit Deal, whether a majority does or can exist in parliament in support of another referendum, and the current Labour party policy on the issue.

Jackson Rawlings, the editor at The Politicalists, was our guest on today's show. Today's chat is a little more abstract than many of the discussions that we have been having of late, we got into a number of different discussions about the current state of British politics, the left-right divide, political polarisation, the alt-right, and how we could improve the British political system as a whole.

Liberal Democrat MP for Edinburgh West, Christine Jardine, was our guest on today's show. We had a fantastic conversation about the current state of the Liberal Democrats, the party's role in the Brexit process in Parliament (including the absence of Vince Cable and Tim Farron from votes on the latest round of amendments proposed by the ERG), and the plans for a new centrist party.

Barney Scholes from the People's Vote campaign was our guest on today's show. Barney is the first of a series of interviews that we conducted in London surrounding Brexit, the People's Vote, and a 'No Deal' scenario. We chatted all about the different justifications and arguments surrounding a vote on the final Brexit deal, as well as post-Brexit disaster planning and the lack of responsibility in politics today.

Elaine Crory from Alliance for Choice was our guest on today's show. She was asked by Progressive Politics Northern Ireland to be a speaker at the Belfast 'We Deserve Better' rally, but was asked to pull out amidst controversy surrounding what was described as 'divisive issues'. We wanted to talk to Elaine to get her perspective on exactly what happened, why she felt it happened, and what the future holds for Northern Ireland and devolution.
