The Trawl

134: Order of the Thistle and Other Mad Plots


Listen Later

Jemma and Marina pay tribute to Theresa May who will be standing down at the next election. If by pay tribute you mean, remembering what she was known for re Windrush, the Hostile Environment and Brexit, amongst other 'hits.' 

And then it's back to the big political news of the week. Lee Anderson is off to Reform. Getting suspended and then being offered a lot of money had nothing to do with it. He just wants his country 'back' apparently. The ladies wonder what it is he wants it back from....

There's a lot to talk about when it comes to the press conference, plus what it means for The Tories. Nadine Dorries thinks Johnson is the answer, but then she always thinks that Marina and Jemma discuss whether or not the the chances of his return are anything more than pure fantasy. 

And then it's on to Kate Gate, that photo, and some of the tweets surrounding it. In other Royal news, Edward has been awarded the Order of The Thistle. It's safe to say Marina probably isn't going to be booked as a Royal correspondent any time soon given that she's not entirely sure which one Edward is. She also can't stop laughing at the Order Jemma has decided she should be awarded. 


Lots of incredible Under Rated Tweets finish this episode off.
