Politics feels chaotic for a reason.
In this PMQs episode, we discuss what looks like surface-level madness - government U-turns, free speech crackdowns, global unrest and endless culture wars, to understand the deeper structural problem: a debt-based system that no longer works.
This isn't about left vs right, or one bad leader. It's about incentives, power, and a financial system that concentrates wealth, hollows out society, and forces every government into the same trap: manage decline & tighten control.
From Keir Starmer and Ofcom to central banks, QE, and why elections no longer change outcomes, we discuss how we got here and why everything feels like it's coming apart at once.
