Hear ye! Hear ye! Brace yourselves because it's that time of year again... 

When an unelected man puts a crown of jewels worth more than Kent on his head and reads out a list of Government bills that will do absolutely nothing to tackle the cost of living crisis. Makes one proud to be British.

Jemma and Marina discuss one of the most verbose but substance-free monarch's speeches for decades, before discussing Marina's new al-fresco living lifestyle choice. 

In post-truth Brexit Britain, it now appears living homeless in a tent is a lifestyle choice, but living with your folks rent-free while you cream £25k off the taxpayer is just impressively shrewd and totally within the parliamentary rules. Obvs. 

And while the state of events is dire, your responses to it are not - and the ladies delight in reading out some epic tweets in response to the latest installment of the Cruella horror show.

Then it's onto protests - which are now called hate marches thanks to our Home Secretary's desperate need to whip up hate and sow division. Not to mention her shocking undermining of the met police - which comes at an interesting time considering last week our Govt wanted to label anyone undermining our institutions as an extremist. Projection much?

The Covid inquiry takes a new turn and gets the ladies talking about times they've had to adapt to male-dominated environments - with Marina once working in a marketing team that the CEO affectionately labeled 'the crayon girls'.

Then they wrap up with some choice underrated tweets before finishing with a Covid-themed pudding from Mathilda Thorpe.
