FROM REFORM TO RE£ORM - Feat. Ian Stone
Summary
Geoff Norcott and guest Ian Stone discuss the record-breaking £72 million donation to Reform UK by crypto billionaires Ben Delo and Christopher Harborm, debating the implications of such wealth on political influence. They also critique the Lindsay Clancy trial in the US, focusing on the media’s sensationalism and the doxxing of the lone dissenting juror. The conversation includes lighthearted banter about autumn, ticket prices for comedy tours, and the absurdity of airline food costs.
