Show notes

PM Andy's on holiday, Andrew Pierce is back from schmoozing Joan Collins while Kevin has escaped to Spain to avoid the UK heatwave. But it's far from quiet on the political front with bad headlines for the government rejecting pleas by the family of PC Andrew Harper to keep his killers in jail, questions on how the PM will pay for his ambitious adult social care plans which he seems to be betting the farm on and have Reform jumped the shark with policies more suited to Count Binface? They want to send in the Royal Marines to dump illegal migrants back on the French beaches, what could possibly go wrong? Sit back on the sun lounger, sangria in hand and enjoy half an hour of all you need to know from back home, then chillax.
