Can an independent candidate cause a major upset in the July general election and become the first ever female independent candidate to enter Parliament? Wells & Mendips Hills constituency candidate Abi McGuire firmly believes she can and host Ross Hemsworth chats and puts questions from our listeners to her, in episode 5 of the #JustSayin' podcast.

Award-nominated author Dr Liz Williams is Ross's special guest in this recorded 'as live' edition of Just Sayin' discussing AI (artificial intelligence) with ChatGPT making a guest appearance!

Ross asks, could AI lead to a Logans Run style future, where over population and no money for NHS, benefits and pensions, means potential 'termination' at a set age for human beings? It is a REAL possibility, tune in to find out why.

In episode 3, Ross Hemsworth discusses reaching state pension age in the UK and how anyone can survive on it if they don't or can't work, don't own a property or have any savings.

Ross also discusses how many believe that the state pension will not exist for very much longer and how this may affect those who still believe they can rely on it in old age.

Also in this episode, Ross discusses how he recently submitted a Freedom of Information request to the Treasury, and asked where all our National Insurance (NI) contributions actually go, and is it true that various governments 'borrow' from the fund. He reads out their response in this episode of the show. It makes VERY interesting listening.

There are also comments from some of the show's regular listeners.
