LABOUR’S BIGGEST LIE? Lionel Zetter on Burnham & Britain’s Political Elite | Littlewood & Cox
Description: Is Labour running out of road — and who REALLY holds the power in Britain?
On The Littlewood & Cox Show on UKLive, Mark Littlewood is joined by political lobbying veteran and author Lionel Zetter for a wide-ranging conversation about Labour, business, pensions, lobbying and the forces shaping British politics.
Lionel argues that Labour has “borrowed as much as they can borrow” and “taxed pretty well as much as they can tax”, while questioning how the party can pay for its promises. The conversation also turns to the triple lock, the relationship between government and business, and whether lobbying deserves its murky reputation.
Plus, Lionel reveals the story behind his new political thriller The Lobbyist: Age of the Autocrat, exploring the connections between politicians, lobbyists, the City, security services and the wider British establishment — and asks whether authoritarian forces abroad could help fuel populist movements inside Western democracies.
