In this solo episode of Richardson’s Rubicon, I navigate a chaotic evening after my guest cancels last minute. Probably not my best episode, sorry! I reflect on the previous week's well-received interview with Alex Thorburn of Liberation Scotland and Salvo and share listener feedback.
I go into current affairs, questioning the BBC's framing of Scotland's performance, have a go at John Swinney's vague 2050 independence vision, and unpack the failure of wealth tax proposals. I also lays into the government’s approach to energy pricing and windfall payments to gas companies, all while urging listeners to call in (spoiler: they don’t). 😢
This candid and slightly chaotic episode touches on sovereignty, media bias, wealth inequality, and government energy policy.
