Summary

Uplifted by the idea of sending people seeking refuge to Rwanda? Vote Tory. In episode 015 our intrepid political podcasters (aka enemies of the people!) look at Twitter’s reaction to yet another bin fire of a week from Truss and co. There’s been the Tory conference which, some pictures and reports have indicated, hasn’t been the jubilant sell-out extravaganza they might have been hoping for… The karaoke night has been canned (karaoke queen Thérèse Coffey will be gutted!) and Rees-Mogg was greeted somewhat unfavourably as he made his way in… Plus Beth Rigby gnaws on Margarine Thatcher, pod fave Russ In Cheshire sums up the week in Tory, Jemma & Marina have a run-in with a Gbeebies presenter, there’s some love for BylineTimes, and we all go a bit giddy for Lewis Goodall’s underrated tweet of the week. As always, there’s a lord of the week, and our political pair leave you with some pudding. Seen a great tweet? Twit us @TheTrawlPodcast. This is a public episode.
