How To Learn From Liz Truss
How much lasting damage has Liz Truss done to the Conservative Party, and any future leaders hoping to pursue a radical tax-cutting agenda?
The political masterminds Peter Mandelson, Polly Mackenzie and Daniel Finkelstein join Matt Chorley to discuss the former prime minister's new book and whether she wants her party to win or lose the election.
And with local elections on the way, does expectation management really work - and could a defeat even lead to Rishi Sunak walking away from Downing Street?

We'll be recording a special episode of the podcast in front of a live audience after the local elections - find the details here.

Trussonomics isn't dead
Liz Truss thought she had two years to save the economy, but her mini-budget caused it all to blow up in less than two months. We're now a year on from her chaotic 49 day premiership, but there are groups of economists and politicians who think her free-market growth strategy was right and it's only a matter of time before it makes a comeback.

Lettuce Pray
All (Dis) Quiet on the Westminster Front
Liz Truss is back.
And oh.
So are those pauses.
She tells Spectator TV she doesn't want to be PM again but she does want to promote her economic ideas. (You remember the ones that nearly melted the markets). We ask why there has been so little self reflection. And if her economic diagnosis might one day prove right...
And we speak to Malte Grunert - producer of the world's most harrowing film, All Quiet on the Western Front about German attitudes to war, modern warfare and German history.

It’s Tuesday and Rob & Rob are back with more answers to listener’s questions.
First up is Chris from Manchester. He wants to know what The Robs think Liz Truss’ appointment means for investors.
It’s a very timely question, not least because of the volatile news cycle with regards to the latest PM appointment.
Next up is a question from Alex, who has £80,000 in an ISA.
He wants to know if it’s smart for him to cash in this ISA and use the money to invest in property, or would his money be better spent in other investment avenues?
Press play and hear what Rob & Rob have to say.
