Episode description

As Liz Truss is forced out of office, Britain will have its third prime minister this year. Whether it's Rishi Sunak, Penny Mordaunt or indeed Boris Johnson - who is plotting a return - this farce leaves Britain in an economic and soil death spiral. Only a general election gives this country hope of being prised away from the grip of these lunatics - but will the Tories ever allow an election which could wipe them out? And how much is the Tory crisis about something far more profound - a broken economic model that itself has to go?


We're joined by the brilliant economist Faiza Shaheen.
