Marina's back from her holidays. Back to a broken freezer and a load of rotten food, which feels like a great metaphor for the state of the Tory party. To cheer her up, Jemma gives her a few welcome home treats. 

There's the audience reaction to the Rwanda plan, the very definition of tumbleweed, a particularly poignant question for Helen Whatley to answer, and some excerpts from Lee Anderson's show on GB News. 

Plus why was Nigel Farage locked out of his bank account and will he leave Britain because of it? Marina and Jemma have got everything crossed before a chat about Threads v Twitter and a glorious pudding from a new account.
