Listen now
Description
Nigel Farage claims Boris Johnson will go down in history as the “worst prime minister of modern times” after a public spat that saw the ex-PM attack the Reform leader for his comments on Ukraine and Putin where he claimed the West provoked the invasion. Camilla reacts to the backlash in the studio with Associate Editor Gordon Rayner who's standing in for Kamal for this episode. Plus, could the general election gambling controversy be the new 'Partygate' for the Tories? And can the real Kemi Badenoch please stand up? We do a deep dive on the politician who could be the future of her party.
