The Blair Essay and the £120,000 Brake Cable

0:00 / 21:29

Tonight's Episode

This week on Just Buffering, Steve Hyland and Gordon Baxter dive headfirst into another packed week of politics, public services and pure absurdity.

The boys look at the so-called "Lost Generation" report and ask whether lockdown, rising business costs and political short-termism have created a workforce stuck in limbo. Why are employers struggling to hire? And do modern politicians really understand how real businesses actually work?

Also this week: • Tony Blair's 5,700-word essay and whether Labour has lost its direction • Reform UK's public infighting and the "Farage Barrage" • Why MPs increasingly come from politics… and nowhere else • The NHS strikes and whether the current system can survive untouched • The Red Arrows shrinking because their jets are literally too old • Trump, Iran and oil prices once again causing global headaches • Water company bosses, mysterious CEOs and pencil-written policies • Plus: bizarre modern job titles, football beer statistics and a £120,000 brake cable

As always, it's news, views and a few laughs from two old blokes trying to make sense of the world.
