Pomp Will Eat Itself – Weekly Edition
Episode description
Pageantry, pomp and poignancy have flowed in abundance since the Queen's death, while mourning has put democracy on ice. The panel unpacks the nation’s reaction – and tries to decipher what it all really means. Plus, the latest from the Ukraine counter-offensive, as it firmly appears the tide is turning against Russia.

- “There has been a lot of self-policing, but as far as I can tell there has been very little McCarthyism around The Queen’s death.” – Marie Le Conte
- “Truss’s speech about The Queen was really bad, but I have sympathy for her.” – Marie Le Conte
- “Russia has had a terrible war, it’s a war they can’t even admit they’re in.” – Arthur Snell
