The Trawl

Ep 53: Brexit benefits, racist karaoke and barge holiday capers with 30p Lee.


Listen Later

This episode opens with aptly named, Bell and Spurling, the one-hit wonder duo who performed what can only be referred to as racist karaoke, to a somewhat less than diverse crowd, on GB News, with their new song, 'Nigel says'. 


Jemma and Marina then try to digest the news that, according to polling, Liz Truss is set to win her seat in South West Norfolk, before discussing Patrick Minford: Truss' trusted economist, who can be trusted, but only for being wrong about everything.


Then it's on to 30p Lee Anderson who this week sent out a tweet that was like starting a fight, in an empty room, with himself, before heading off on his thrilling barge holiday and documenting it bit by bit on his Twitter feed - lucky us.


Up for discussion next is the latest Brexit benefit: rejecting schoolchildren from the EU - how lovely, before a quick chat on the junior doctor's strikes and the right-wing blame game. Jemma and Marina are having none of it...


Before finishing on the King's forthcoming coronation - the position he worked so hard for that the book series Little People, Big Dreams have made a book about him. Really...


All polished off with a pudding by Aid Thompsin who highlights the rare moments that this Tory Government is very happy for us all to engage in a spot of socialism.
