Ep 65: Johnson procreates, Britain stagnates...

This episode opens up with the news of yet more impending fruit from the loins of Boris Johnson - the PM credited with withdrawing from the EU, but seemingly incapable of withdrawing elsewhere. Jemma and Marina ponder how this news has gone down with his father, Stanley Johnson given his somewhat controversial views on population control. Then it's on to talking shit...literally. Because while the world and their dog can see what's happened to our once beautiful waterways, our Secretary of State appears in denial, and not just about our water - like Manuel from Fawlty Towers: she knows nothing. Jemma and Marina touch upon the latest Brexit benefits, which include more corporate socialism (it's the only type the Tories like) where taxpayers are footing the bill for basically begging for foreign investment because that's how unattractive we've become. What's not to like? Then the ladies wrap up with a clip of Richard Madeley desperately seeking his Aha moment in an interview with Gary Lineker...and failing abysmally, before finishing up with a pudding from Mr North Nofolk himself, Alan Partridge.
