The Rest Is Politics

The Rest Is Politics brings together Alastair Campbell, a former strategist and spokesman for British Prime Minister Tony Blair, and Rory Stewart, a former Conservative minister and diplomat, for candid conversation across the political divide. They take on the biggest questions in UK politics and international affairs, from Westminster scandals and populism to geopolitics and foreign policy, drawing on firsthand experience at the heart of government. Alongside their analysis, the hosts interview world leaders and answer listener questions in regular Question Time episodes. Their mix of insider perspective, genuine disagreement and civil debate makes complex issues feel lively and open to discussion.
