Andrew Mountbatten Arrested + Slumlord Peter Rachman | Ep.138 | The Scandal Mongers Podcast

<description>&lt;p&gt;Phil is very much occupied by Australia this week. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He starts by sharing his thoughts on a recent boycott of an important Writer's Festival in Adelaide because of a row about open support for Hamas and its murderous actions on 7/10. The boycott was by mostly left-of-centre wing writers and broadcasters, some of whom Phil has worked with and knows well. He doesn’t think they were right!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Then - in the week that Prince Andrew finally leaves Royal Lodge - Phil turns to the state of the British royal family’s relationships with Australia, in the company of lawyer, broadcaster and long-term royal observer Caroline Di Russo.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;From the rise and fall of republicanism through Australia’s love affair with Diana Princess of Wales and then its (brief!) embrace of Prince Harry in his ‘Larkin Prince’ phase, this is a fascinating convo (as they would say in Australia) about royalty, politics and culture down under. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;There’s information and extracts from Phil’s new book here...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;https://sites.google.com/view/1945thereckoning/home&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;You can order his book on Amazon UK and Amazon Australia, India and NZ - and it is available all around the world as an e-book and an audio book..&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;https://www.amazon.co.uk/1945-Reckoning-Empire-Struggle-World/dp/139971449X/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&amp;amp;qid=&amp;amp;sr=#&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;*We now have a Thank You button (next to the ’three dots’) for small donations that help support our work*&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Looking for the perfect gift for a special scandalous someone - or someone you’d like to get scandalous with?
