Ep 162: Safe Southgate, Fascey-Farage and what the hell is a supermajority?
Listen now
Description
England are top of the group in the Euros, two clean sheets, and unbeaten - so why aren't we all ecstatic? Jemma and Marina discuss some of the best reactions to Southgate's 'safe' approach with a self-deprecating treat from Danny Dyer. Then from football to fascism, as the ladies visit the latest public soilings from the man who just makes it up as he goes along - Nigel Farage. They discuss his dodgy as hell position on Russia and you won't believe who has been offering their support to Mr Farage on his X account...all the way from the Kremlin! Then it's onto the Tories who have spent the last week trying to convince everyone that a supermajority is a thing - it ain't.  Then some superb underrated tweets and clips with an absolute belter via the grandson of Churchill and a brief mention of The Telegraph who appear to be losing their minds more so than usual.  Finally, a superb and heart-warming monologue from comedian John Oliver inspires Marina to do her very own election call-to-arms.  All wrapped up with a football-themed from Paddy Power.
