Go Radio Politics Show: July 5th, 2026.
This is a catch-up version of Bernard Ponsonby's live, weekly Sunday show on Go Radio.
PLAY and HIT SUBSCRIBE, and NEVER miss an episode! Is Andy Burnham offering a genuine new direction for Britain, or simply a fresh face leading the same agenda? This week's Go Radio Politics Show tackles the big political questions dominating Westminster and Holyrood.Bernard Ponsonby and guests Frank McNally (Labour), Patrick Harvie (Scottish Greens) and Michelle Campbell (SNP) debate Burnham's vision for decentralising power, the future of devolution, and whether Labour's commitment to strict fiscal rules will limit its ability to deliver meaningful change.
The discussion also turns to national security, examining Labour's defence spending plans, NATO commitments, nuclear deterrence, and growing global threats from Russia, cyber warfare and international instability.
Finally, the panel explores Glasgow City Council's pursuit of £45 million in unpaid council tax and what it reveals about the cost-of-living crisis, local government funding and the urgent need for council tax reform.
