Episode description

What’s worse about the Mail’s attack on Angela Rayner? The sexism or the clumsy vindictiveness? Plus, Macron squeaks the French presidential election. Should we think twice before ordering Deliveroo? And exactly what sort of country is Britain becoming?


Political journalist Moya Lothian-McLean – who’s written for Gal Dem, the New York Times, the BBC, The Guardian and VICE – is our special guest for the week.

  • “We’re in the age of cut and paste politics. They can’t even write their own excuses any more.” – Gavin Esler
  • “We depend on the good chaps theory… but we haven't got good chaps in government.” – Gavin Esler
