EP 10 - The Rest Is Politics // Late To The Party with Grace Campbell

[@georgepowell2504]

Rory and his facial expressions. British art

[@lcuk99]

😑😬

[@owainevans9391]

"I mustn't monopolise you" is brilliant

[@JocelynKM]

Really interesting to see a more relaxed side to Alastair and Rory, and to hear what they are really like away from politics. Rory loving clubing was interesting. I love Rory's leave a boring party conversation line about "I mustn't monopolise you" and his diplomat Father leaving through the kitchen. Great stuff

[@LucyGraves1]

Rival politicians who fall in love recording a podcast is a pretty good meet cute tbf

[@Mo9255x]

The best chat I’ve seen in years. First time seeing Grace and now a new subscriber. Please bring back Alistair and Rory part 2. Thank you

[@ajmccartney2675]

Very funny insight into both characters, well done to you for getting this side of them out 👏

[@zactaylorschindler8208]

My favourite quote from Rory ‘everybody is sat next to their wives’. 😂Hmmm, half the people are sat next to their wives, the other half are the wives!

[@tomh2121]

Half way through and this is great. Never listened to your stuff before Grace but your dad is very complimentary of you and I can see why. I’d love this to be a regular podcast. Your dad and Rory are a great duo and I think you add to the dynamic.

[@willacarr6746]

AHA ...ONLY CONNECT

[@sluglife9785]

Why does Grace sound posher than Rory? Suddenly the illusion is revealed. We're in the castles of privilege.

[@RJ456-w6f]

Rory has a standard public schoolboy accent

[@kayess2634]

I wasn’t sure at first but this turned out really well, thank you, all three of you.

[@prashantduggal8235]

Rory Stewart’s rebrand has hit its zenith. This is fabulous viewing.

[@BM-yc8eg]

I could sense Rory's anxiety to be liked by Grace, which was quite endearing. I really enjoyed this.

[@AlexM-um2xv]

I love how Grace connects two politicians (including her dad) to the reality people live in!

[@coralraven4780]

Love this, I haven’t seen Grace before, lovely to listen to you all together, we see another side a more human side to Rory and Alistair!

[@rrkanji23]

This is soooo good. Grace is brilliant, the three of you together are fun and Rory likes to dance who would have guessed that not me! See you at the O2 please play ABBA and dance for us. Thank you for this show loved it…..

[@sharpvidtube]

I would be more shocked if he didn't like to dance. Is there a Tory that doesn't like dancing? They we're doing it during the lockdowns, Theresa May did it walking on to her conference speech, Michael Gove seemed to be out clubbing every night. Not seen one that's good at it, but maybe Rory is the exception.

[@richmorris2870]

I came here from the Rest is Politics, loved the softer side and the insight. I’ve also subscribed. As a Labour member, there’s something homely and almost a bit of a joke about the parties with cheapo wine, egg sandwiches and a bit of veggie quiche - something really unintentionally British about it and those of us outside of London find big flashy parties a bit tacky if I’m honest. Completely agree about the smoking areas…. They’re that good that all the bloody non smokers come and sit/stand there too!

[@alexkuznetsov4334]

Same here 😂

[@benwilliams3698]

You could always find me (a none smoker) in the smoking area of a party, something about the socialising I guess.

[@TEKRific]

"Hey, Rory! Are you waiting for your dealer?" 😆🤣Only in the UK. #Brit wit

[@lolly1811]

I got the sniff after the Boris loving a party comment 😂😂😂

[@Eliteerin]

Omg I wanted you on the rest is politics and now we have effectively achieved it

[@sxmmieftw]

I can imagine Rory escaping through a kitchen tbf 😅

[@1959ticktock]

As a listener to 'the rest...' this is great. Another voice, even one close to one of the participants, adds to the mix,and adds something that makes it better?

[@stubalmer3884]

Lovely too see a lovely interview about these two being friends

[@annabelstewart1423]

This is the best thing I’ve seen in fucking ages

[@lucasr9751]

THIS IS SO GOOOOOD

[@msb4260]

Very funny 😂Alastair has the look of fear and love intertwined as he wonders what Grace is going to say next. A bit like meeting your child’s primary school teacher vibe 😂

[@DawnClifford-o6v]

Really enjoyed this. Fun and funny. Saw a different side to Rory and Alistair. Good interviewer Grace - very natural

[@annemcneill7653]

A breath of fresh air. ❤

[@hollyguest6274]

This is amazing, so so funny

[@LeanneGayle-i7d]

Grace is asking all the important questions, so funny!

[@fateenshareef8716]

I can imagine Rory having to host Boris Jonson and then cursing himself for it and escaping through the kitchen.

[@Fedupg101]

Loved the conversation guys ❤️✌🏼

[@mariateresacimbron6026]

I am listening from Azores Islands

[@lucialaluce2221]

Rory’s so patronising when he talks to Grace. 😂😂

[@leebeenine]

lovely podcast nice to see Rory and Alastair so relaxed at least we now know if we see Rory in the street to avoid him!

[@raziamestry9664]

Shame though as if I bumped into either of them I'd love to have a quick chat and tell them how much I love the podcast and ask about Rory and his clubbing adventures!

[@LizCurran]

The camera editing on this is brilliant.

[@Lreserved]

Rory was out of focus during the entire thing?

[@teenyscottbarber6415]

Oh my goodness, loved this. But am I the first of the TRIP demographic to watch?!

[@annabelstewart1423]

No! I love TRIP too!

[@charlie7583]

TRIPSTAR too

[@LizCurran]

I’m here too!

[@gaothmhor]

TRIPer here too

[@sararichardson737]

No y’re not!

[@ivydickson7596]

What a delightful interview. And seeing Rory and Alistair on huge pink sofa. Well. Just an ordinary older woman listening from New Zealand. Come over from TRIP.

[@sararichardson737]

Anything Rory and Alaistair.. great thx❤❤❤

[@margaretmchugh4834]

Grace your dad was part of the government which provided the best educational opportunities for working class kids my 3 children are so confident have great paying jobs and the confidence to stand up for what they believe in I had the opportunity to go to university at the age of 40 gain a degree due to the Labour Party

[@sharpvidtube]

It was better before the 90s, most people could get grants to go to university at one time. I went in the late 80s, when the grants had been cut, but were still enough to live on. That was after years of the Tory cuts, university in the late 70s must've been amazing.

[@margaretmchugh4834]

Your so right not only did Labour spend on education they also invested in the NHS and I also ventured with better wages and working conditions

[@rachelkey2045]

Grace - (Brexit) Yeah, that's my Dad's only party conversation. My Mum is famously the better one of the two of you. Loved it. Nearly as much as Rory. As a die hard TRIP fan (and O2 ticket holder) loved a brilliant woman leading this conversation.

[@jaithechannel]

She's hardly a brilliant woman... she's Alistair campbell's daughter... if that isn't the entitled nepotism that he used to rally against as part of New Labour I don't know what is...

[@onenation9510]

Great podcast Grace! Big Up Parliament Hill!!......Roy Stewart is pretty cool for a Conservative IRL despite texting in Latin to Kwasi Kwarteng!!!

[@juliangilbert5465]

Angela Rayner DJing was like John Prescott thumping someone. The press and establishment outraged, the rest of the country actually quite impressed. 😉

[@sararichardson737]

Exactly!

[@VladVexler]

Awesome job Grace!

[@manreay6769]

Loved this 👏👏👏👏

[@Workforce_Anna]

Making my edit now to ATW10min version as we speak besties

[@Rella19]

Love this so much ❤❤❤❤

[@marklowe4431]

Excellent as usual. Grace is just lovely.

[@TheRexbassist]

"she's finally come to get me" haha

[@Bespoke2]

Love this! Great chat! 😊❤

[@tumblyhomecarolinep7121]

What a brilliant video this was! Thank you.

[@larakeswick1768]

Loved this

[@desiii420]

Does anyone have a link to a TikTok of bromance?

[@Nobody-qy3vd]

literally of the account ‘trippedpilled’ - they’re really lovely

[@brucewalsh-in6np]

That was fun. Goood questions. I loveed hanging with the cool kids in the smoking area

[@RHD1889]

You need to do this again

[@mf4435]

This is great. Well done all.

[@malcolmmann436]

This is totally brilliant!

[@bryoned9745]

Absolutely love this ❤

[@gmart225]

Meat cute got me ahhaahahhahahahaahah

[@rzysko]

Loved this.

[@1959ticktock]

Alastair's face when Grace talks about Labour party parties. This is the point of this video.

[@juliecraig6770]

nothing like your own children to tell you how it is 😂

[@simon758ful]

Brilliant! Love it!

[@charlie7583]

I enjoyed that, thanks Grace.

[@Jos-z5v]

That must be why Campbell likes Rory so much, it was Rory who had an affair with a married woman whilst she volunteered for his charity in Afghanistan alongside her husband.

[@KerryMcNamara-s2z]

Love this

[@daisycharles440]

Love this 😊

[@thesecretfilmstudent6222]

Very funny interview, despite Rory's concerns.

[@jjjones1970]

Take heed and leave the celebrities or public folk alone if you ever see them out. It’s a massive bugbear of mine.

[@chittzz3397]

love seeing rory a bit more unbuttoned

[@hewitube]

Such fun! 😅

[@ukgnome100]

enjoyed that

[@MichaelBennett1]

Looks like Rory got the lower res camera - 3:18 (probably an encoding issue). 26:43 talking about Boris 😂

[@WS12658]

I think it's just out of focus.

[@MichaelBennett1]

@@WS12658 probably : )

[@denismichaeljames]

She’s great. I’ve never heard Grace until now. That was real fun.

[@willacarr6746]

Later...later ....still 😊

[@mywoolmitten]

That was great, thank you for the interesting conversation!

[@bozooe]

rory gurning off the opium speedball he did before the show

[@deemullis5106]

I love Grace ❤You should do more with her. She could open up another whole new demographic to these fantastic The Rest is Politics podcasts.

[@andreusredloff2252]

This was fun but demonstrates why Trump is so successful. The privilege and inanity in politics floods out. Here’s to the orphans of Iraq.

[@skellvarnsen23]

🎉🎉🎉

[@Kelly-jl3gc]

ah ha...explains the abrupt rest is politics endings...Rory just leaves... done, over. outta here lol

[@MaeFraser]

Ahah TRIP TikTok mentioned

[@Tjm_32]

So good

[@viccifranklin3165]

Very entertaining

[@skellvarnsen23]

❤❤❤

[@Kelly-jl3gc]

omg so funny 😂

[@samferguson5180]

Alistar’s daughter is everything he claims to hate (Toff’s)

[@pauljorgensen6608]

A Nepo love fest

[@LewisAdie]

VERY GOOD! A "colonials" view from Lewis of Fremantle.

[@iKnowFast]

11:08 - part of growing up *sigh*

[@ZombieSnail..]

Jah jah snooty

[@cosmicfoxglove1047]

Grace you are very entertaining and I loved this episode.

[@krigsgaldr7603]

Rory wants to know what a 'Meat que' is

[@sxmmieftw]

l o v e 🎉

[@sallyhenderson9159]

She's like a miniature Emily Thornberry.

[@joshanderson956]

Nightmare blunt rotation

[@stevecampbell9686]

What's going on with that light in the corner?

[@sararichardson737]

That was positively Christmassy!

[@skenksnfmela2749]

I really didn't like that comment about how you just couldn't bear to go on holiday somewhere like Devon and pretend to enjoy it. For many people, that's the only kind of holiday we could ever have. Smacks of privilege, comes across rather entitled

[@TheMissCorky]

It’s literally way more expensive to spend a week in Cornwall/Devon than most of Europe, the weather is shite 98% of the time, food is average (and expensive) and there’s nothing to do if you don’t have a car. If you can afford £1000+ for a 5 night stay plus £200 9hr trains then you’re far more privileged than most. Politicians have to go there to show they’re supporting the shite British tourism industry 🙄

[@skenksnfmela2749]

@TheMissCorky I couldn't afford that, not everywhere is that expensive for a week's stay. In fact, we wouldn't stay in one place for a week straight, but go between budget hotels like travelodge. Plane tickets for a whole family would way outmatch the price of driving to Devon or Cornwall (not to mention car hire as most places abroad need). The UK has some truly beautiful places, one of the rare good things we have going on here.

[@stevecampbell9686]

I can't believe it's taken you this long to work out that some people have more money and are more privileged than others. 🤷😊

[@emilycox6560]

Can’t believe Alistair has raised a pure toff

[@viccifranklin3165]

How do you know the individuals who listen to you ?
