Episode description

In this week’s episode, host Steve Anglesey has Tory leadership race fever. He begins by discussing Liz Truss's disappearing policies and Rishi Sunak's disappearing chances of success before hearing listeners' thoughts on what a choice between the two candidates is similar to. Then, journalist and global editor of The Bureau of Investigate Journalism James Ball joins the podcast to share his thoughts on why Liz Truss would make a terrible Prime Minister (he has 39 reasons, but could go on). He also explains why she is doing so well in the polls and if and how she could trump Labour in the next election. Plus, Ann Widdecombe, Jacob Rees-Mogg and Rishi Sunak all feature in the Hall of Shame this week. Enjoyed this episode? Let us know by tweeting @TheNewEuropean.
