The Trawl

Ep 86: Jenrick evades, Anderson annoys and Edwina Currie can do one...


Listen Later

Jemma and Marina open with a segment on businesses being bells... First Just Eat have a moment, then a PR company gets itself in a pickle after trying to get a bakery to work for free in return for celeb exposure. Last time they checked, exposure doesn't pay the bills.


Then the ladies shine a light on radio hosts not taking any shit - and with Tory MPs doing the media rounds, there’s a lot of it to take. Starting with Justice Minister, Robert Jenrick and the case of the missing name, followed by Tory MP Tom Hunt suggesting that the BBC manipulate their callers, which begs the question: why are there so many hunts in the Tory party?


Then it's all aboard the Bibby Stockholm - a barge that the Daily Mail would have you believe may as well be. 30p Lee had a few choice words to say about the barge and the migrants who might complain about them - words, which in normal times, would have been reserved for miserable little bigots, but now get platformed by the Govt's Deputy Chairman and indeed endorsed by No10. 


Then it's onto some delicious underrated tweets - including a moment of, unexpected, pure beauty from the BBC. And, as former Tory minister, Edwina Currie has come out trying to talk down Carol Vorderman, Jemma and Marina pull out a few underrated tweets that highlight why it's probably best that Currie sits this one out.
