EP 91 – MOSCOW MULE | Russia, Andy Burnham, Starmer Assassination Attempt & Palestine Action

Russia fires on a British yacht in the English Channel. Andy Burnham pivots right. The Starmer assassination plot divides Sal and Don. Palestine Action loses its appeal. And don't forget Farage's five million pounds.

This week on your favourite UK politics podcast, No Holds Barred, Sal Dodgson and Don McGowan unpack a packed news week — with strong opinions, genuine disagreement, and no filter. From media framing of the Starmer case to what Burnham's rightward shift means for Labour's left flank, nothing gets a free pass.

Topics this episode:

  • Russian warship fires toward a yacht in the English Channel
  • The Keir Starmer assassination attempt — Sal and Don disagree
  • Media framing and the court of public opinion
  • Palestine Action appeal upheld — what it means
  • Andy Burnham's pitch to the right
  • Nigel Farage and the £5 million question

Strong language. Politics unpacked. Every week.
