For many the most marked impact of the Corona Virus is that they will have to wait till November to see the new James Bond movie. Apparently the marketing team didn’t want people dying from watching a movie called No Time to Die. By then though, if the infection rate continues, millions could have died. We’ll certainly be out of toilet rolls. Yet people are still making the argument that the mitigation measures are an over reaction and the flu is more deadly. So far. Plus, why Phil Dobbie is thinking of becoming a right winger.

The World Health organisation has confirmed another case of coming down with a Johnson induced pregnancy, bringing the known total to six although there are fears unreported cases could mean the actual figure is much higher. In today’s Balls Radio Phil Dobbie asks whether the new baby will pass the country’s stringent immigration tests. Will it be born with a PhD, for example? Plus, the latest on the Corona virus, the Tom Tom traffic index and Dr Seuss’s birthday. But he’s dead now.

Donald Trump this week suggested he would rather watch Gone with the Wind than an Oscar wining movie made overseas. Remember the good old days. BBC’s Question Time featured a rant (unchallenged) from a woman who claims our hospitals are flooded with non-English speaking health tourists getting services for free and the solution is to stop all migration. Then there’s our new old passports. Thank goodness we’re going back to the olden days when white people watched old movies and were shielded from the rest of the world. Not to mention the dredging ….

Destroying the BBC, an unworkable migration strategy, crazy bridge talk – could the Boris bounce be over soon? Phil Dobbie suggests that going hard on the national broadcaster could come back to bite him and the idea of a £23,000 minimum income for EU migrants surely means the benefit of Brexit is that Brits get to do all the low paid jobs themselves. Is this what people really voted for?

Boris Johnson will send some of his cabinet back to where they came from, maybe because Dominic Cummings doesn’t like that. The same thing applies to criminals born overseas who have spent more than a year in a UK prison. The reasoning is, sending them back makes Britain’s streets safer. In today’s Balls Radio Phil Dobbie asks if that means are streets are unsafe with all the released criminals who weren’t born overseas. Plus the latest on the Corona virus, EU visa rules and China’s digital currency.

Donald Trump and Boris Johnson have one thing in common – besides their hair style and fashion sense. They both like to spend big with government money. None of the fiscal conservatism that has been the hallmark of the parties they purport to represent. No bad thing necessarily, except Boris seems to be appealing to a broader demographic than Trump. So why isn’t Trump also offering spending programmes that benefit all, not just the rich. Phil Dobbie puts that question to Richard Kazimer.

The entire UK nation has had a wind problem. Is it diet related? Lon today’s Balls Radio Phil Dobbie puts Storm Ciara in perspective. We also present tangible evidence that we have at least one listener, and we look back at the olden days, when people used to think about things.

Steve Keen joins Phil Dobbie on today’s Balls Radio to discuss Donald Trump’s State of the Union address yesterday, plus the Presidential Medal of Freedom, which has gone to radio hatemonger Rush Limbaugh. Seriously! Plus, the end of the BBC and a celebration of the birthday of the Readers Digest and the ten most beautiful words in the English language.

At last Britain is free and ready to discover its place in the world. The war is over, as Nigel Farage declared, without him getting his suit dirty (except the occasional milkshake). As Phil Dobbie discusses on today’s Balls Radio, the UK and the EU will state their negotiating position on the future trading relationship. Boris Johnson is hoping for something similar to Canada – but how good will that be, really? Balls Radio examines what the EU Canada trade deal looks like. And is Dominque Raab right to suggest it’ll mean there’s no need for customs checks into and out of the UK?

There was no more pathetic sight than seeing Nigel Farage and his band of merry Brexiteers waving their tiny Union Jacks on his last day at the European parliament. In the end his microphone was cut off, and out they shrugged, never to return. On today’s Balls Radio Phil Dobbie talks out our pathetic Brexit and quotes from Martin Fletcher in today’s New Statesman who says this is a day of profound national shame. Plus, some facts and figures on the Coronavirus and the Australian bushfires.
