Through the Week with Simple Politics | SP Podcast

This week, Tatton and Diane speak about the two-child benefit cap, water company fines, nationalisation, and the latest government guidance on zoos.

Who we are

Simple Politics does things differently. We exist to help you have better conversations about the issues and the changes that matter. We do so by being clear, accurate and impartial. Also, light-hearted, engaging and occasionally (but not as often as we think) amusing.

It’s not just about understanding the facts and the topics themselves but also looking at why different people hold the opinions they do. Those with whom you disagree aren’t monsters. Understanding and respect are at the core of everything we do.

Our core offering will always be free.

Unfortunately, giving things away for free isn’t a great business model. We’ve never been business people. But. We do need to make this work.

We do so through our amazing supporters, who keep us going by buying stuff in our shop and making monthly donations.

What better way to celebrate 10 years of SP than with a massive party? When we say 'massive party' we mean upwards of 3 ex members of SP coming back and talking about SP. It was genuinely wonderful.
