    <description>Join the team behind the @SimplePolitics Instagram account, Tatton, and Diane as they reflect on the last week's political landscape in the simplest way possible.



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.

      <title>Simple Child</title>
      <description>This week Diane and Tatton talk student loans, school reform and answer more of your questions than ever before!



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.

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.

      <title>Simple Pimple</title>
      <description>This week the gang chat about the early flu surge, the Digital ID debate, Farage’s latest controversies, your mailbag questions, and what’s coming up in UK politics. 

Cast your vote for us in the People’s Choice category of the Political Podcast Awards here: https://politicalpodcastawards.co.uk/the-peoples-choice-award/


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.

      <title>Simple Chat</title>
      <description>This week the gang chat about fireworks causing chaos, the government’s plan to ban violent porn, and big changes coming to the national curriculum. Plus, they unpack a week of communication blunders from ministers and look ahead to what’s next in Westminster.


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.

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.

      <title>Simple Year</title>
      <description>This week Tatton and Diane speak about a year of Starmer, party socials, the welfare u-turn and Tatton's wedding!



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.

      <itunes:summary>This week, the gang chat about the clocks changing, the latest on Reform, and take a quick look at Trump's tariffs.


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.

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.

      <title>SP Christmas 2024</title>
      <description>The gang review the top 10 posts of 2024

The Simple Politics book, "Two Years Indoors", is available for preorder NOW from spstuff.co.uk

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.

      <itunes:summary>The gang chat about the big topics being debated in Parliament this week and reflect on the tricky nature of balancing different people’s needs.

The Simple Politics book, "Two Years Indoors", is available for preorder NOW from spstuff.co.uk


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.

      <title>Simple State Opening</title>
      <description>The gang chat about the new bills put forward in the King’s Speech and answer your questions on what they mean

The Simple Politics book, "Two Years Indoors", is available for preorder NOW from spstuff.co.uk


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.

The Simple Politics book, "Two Years Indoors", is available for preorder NOW from spstuff.co.uk


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.

      <title>Simple Nastiness</title>
      <description>The gang reflect on a week in which racism and misogyny have been at the forefront of political discussion.
Thank you!!

The Simple Politics book, "Two Years Indoors", is available for preorder NOW from spstuff.co.uk


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.

      <title>Simple Noise</title>
      <description>The gang chat about how to report on the important bits of politics when it all gets a bit too shouty.

The Simple Politics book, "Two Years Indoors", is available for preorder NOW from spstuff.co.uk


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.

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.

      <title>Simple Returns</title>
      <description>The gang chat about David Cameron’s return to government and all the big things happening during an extra busy week.

1. Introduction: Host Charlotte, co-hosts Tatton and Diane discuss the week's political events.
2. Patreon Discussion: Join us on patreon.com/simplepolitics!.
3. March for Ceasefire in Gaza: Controversy over march intentions; clashes with police officers and arrests made.
4. Resignation of Home Secretary R Ts': Disagreements over policy changes lead to resignation; Su Well's response via a scathing letter blaming him for unfulfilled promises.
5. Office reshuffle anticipation: Potential reshuffling of office positions following R Ts' resignation discussed.
6. David Cameron abroad vs at home: The influence of former Prime Minister David Cameron valued more abroad than domestically - discussions planned on implications of this disparity.
7. Mail Section Q&amp;A:
  * Simon’s question about scrutiny of Lord David Cameron's foreign policies answered by Tat &amp; Diane
  * Mark learns that non-MPs can serve as ministers too
  * Heather is informed that cabinet positions could be offered to opposition members outside coalitions but has not happened due to political complexities
8. Christina asks why people are upset about David Cameron resigning post-Brexit vote despite his initial opposition - discussion around accountability and perceived deceitfulness ensues.

      <title>Simple Smoking</title>
      <description>The gang chat about the big announcements from the Conservatory Conference and looks ahead to a fun-filled (for politics nerds), conference-packed weekend.
Every week Tatton and Diane, aka the team behind the @SimplePolitics Instagram account, are joined by host Kobi (@kobestarr) to recap the week in politics as simply as they can.

The Simple Politics book, "Two Years Indoors", is available for preorder NOW from spstuff.co.uk

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.

The Simple Politics book, "Two Years Indoors", is available for preorder NOW from spstuff.co.uk

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.

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.

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.

      <itunes:summary>Diane, Tatton and Kobi discuss whether they should have drawn a caterpillar cake among other more serious issues.
Every week Tatton and Diane, aka the team behind the @SimplePolitics Instagram account, are joined by host Kobi (@kobestarr) to recap the week in politics as simply as they can.

The Simple Politics book, "Two Years Indoors", is available for preorder NOW from spstuff.co.uk

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.

      <itunes:summary>We have a look into insights gained from the 2021 census and we hear from one of our listeners who is currently on strike.

Every week Tatton and Diane, aka the team behind the @SimplePolitics Instagram account, are joined by host Kobi (@kobestarr) to recap the week in politics as simply as they can.

The Simple Politics book, "Two Years Indoors", is available for preorder NOW from spstuff.co.uk

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.

      <itunes:summary>We have a new Prime Minister!! Will he call a General Election? What do our SP listeners sound like? Can the Government give us more money? Do we want to see the same GP every time? all these questions and more answered in this weeks episode.

Every week Tatton and Diane, aka the team behind the @SimplePolitics Instagram account, are joined by host Kobi (@kobestarr) to recap the week in politics as simply as they can.

The new Simple Politics book, "Two Years Indoors" is available for preorder NOW from spstuff.co.uk

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.

      <itunes:subtitle>Welcome home Nazanin and Anoosheh!</itunes:subtitle>
      <itunes:summary>We have a chat about the return of Nazanin and Anoosheh and Tatton cannot hold back his excitement about the Nationality and Borders Bill.

If you want to support the DEC Ukrainian Humanitarian Appeal you can donate here https://donation.dec.org.uk/ukraine-humanitarian-appeal

Every week Tatton and Diane, aka the team behind the @SimplePolitics Instagram account, are joined by host Kobi (@kobestarr) to recap the week in politics as simply as they can.

The new Simple Politics book, "Two Years Indoors" which is available for preorder NOW from spstuff.co.uk

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.

      <itunes:summary>Parliament was in recess but that doesn't mean a quiet week in the world of Simple Politics! Diane, Tatton and Kobi discuss ways to protect us all on the internet, New Zealand Protest songs and introduce the new Simple Politics book, "Two Years Indoors" which is available for preorder NOW from spstuff.co.uk
Every week Tatton and Diane, aka the team behind the @SimplePolitics Instagram account, are joined by host Kobi (@kobestarr) to recap the week in politics as simply as they can.


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.

      <title>Simple Apologies...</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/simple-politics-podcast/episodes/simple-apologies</link>
      <description>It's been a busy one this week! It seems that 2022 has hit the ground running and breaking news EVEN interrupts the recording of the podcast.
Tatton and Diane, aka the team behind the @SimplePolitics Instagram account, are joined by host Kobi (@kobestarr) to recap the week in politics as simply as they can.


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. 
This podcast has been Produced by Stripped Media and edited by Ben Williams.
