As always, this is heavily inspired by some of my favourite artists. The vocal sounded so good, I had to make the song work around it.

Ringing The Alarm

Martin Northern (Liberal Democrats)

Join us to answer questions about the ward in our St Jude hustings 2023. 

	1. What do you hear on the doorstep as the biggest issue in St Jude?
	2. St Jude hosts a lot of Southsea’s night-time economy, what needs to be done to keep this sector thriving while balancing the needs of residents?
	3. The most likely outcome of these elections is No Overall Control, how would you look to influence the next administration to get a better deal for St Jude?
	4. Victorious Festival will bring 10s of thousands of people into the ward  in late August, is this a  welcome attraction or a burden for the residents?
	5. There is a cost-of-living crisis at the moment, what can local Councils do to better support residents?
	6. The work on the sea defences  are essential  to protect the island is enough being done to protect the aesthetic?
	7. The ward is a parking nightmare, what needs to be done to properly fix this?
	8. Southsea Common has had issues with recreational drugs, do you welcome the banning of Nitrous Oxide?
	9. If you could change just one thing for the ward if you are successful what would it be?

St Jude ward hustings 2023 - who gets your vote?

old cool fool sampler

Will We Ever

Our third episode sees Ian and Simon welcome three guests, Dave Ashmore (Libdems), Cal Corkery (Labour), and Scott Payter-Harris (Conservative), all elected to Portsmouth City Council on May 2nd. Our guests chose four questions at random from the fourteen questions devilishly folded into our Pompey Politics Podcast Pot of Pondering.

PPP 03 Winners and Grinners Special

Ian & Simon discuss the results of the European Parliament elections, how they shaped up in our region (South East) and nationally, what they mean for Brexit and what they mean for the Conservative Party Leadership contest. 

We apologise for the background sound of some kid playing outside. You’re not imagining it.

05 Everyone’s A Winner

PPP05 Everyone’s A Winner

Mr Kevin Thomas has not had a single visitor for more than ten years. He stays in his room at an old peoples home, cutting a lonely and bad tempered figure.  When a Nurse comes to see him, the residents and staff at the Home are amazed. This is a surprise, but of course Mr Thomas does not want to receive any visitors. Just what is his secret? And what news does the Nurse bring with her?

Written and Produced by Simon Sansbury. Starring Tom Rawlings as Green, with Iain Hamer, Lorinda Laing, Jenny Hamer and Emily Phillips. Beacon Productions (c) 2018.
