Episode description

The second leg of the Covid Inquiry is very much underway and Johnson’s government looks evermore like a "terrible, tragic joke". They’re not our words but those of Cabinet Secretary Simon Case. What else did we learn about the handling of the pandemic? And there’s been a small influx of Tory defection to Labour, meanwhile, former SNP MP Lisa Cameron has moved over to the Conservatives. What’s going on?


  • “It’s a sort of confirmation of what we thought might be the worst case scenario.” – Alex Andreou.
  • “Unless you told Johnson over and over again what you wanted him to say, he would wander off and announce the first thing that came into his head.” – Alex Andreou.
  • “There’s one thing to know about rats: and that’s that they don’t really like sinking ships… “ – Marie Le Conte.
  • “Something like 4% of Reclaim voters are telling pollsters they’d vote Remain. Who ARE these people?” – Matt Green.
