The Blair Essay and the £120,000 Brake Cable
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.
