David Davis and Boris Johnson resign, Theresa May insists nothing has changed (again). Yes it’s chaos at the top of the Government (again). A special bonus podcast tries to clear the smoke from the burning dumpster fire that is our government.

Boris Johnson runs away from the Heathrow vote, all the way to the safety of Afghanistan. But the Foreign Secretary still found time to alienate the business community and infuriate half the cabinet.

Another regular episode soon — you can subscribe, and hear the whole archive, at partygamespodcast.com
