Summary

How do we even begin? Jemma “I liked my own tweet” Forte and Marina “there are a lot of Hunts” Purkiss are running out of descriptors for how much trouble Britain is in with these self-serving lunatics at the helm. We have a new PM – our 5th since 2016. Meanwhile, the appetite for a general election increases daily and yet all we’re being served is a s—t sandwiches and cringe worthy dramas, whilst the rest of the world watches on and reports about the UK’s breakdown to their bewildered audiences. On our trawl of Twitter this week, our political pair ponder what they’d say if they met our disgraced former PM and whether Nadine Dorries should become a full-time TV host, alongside what sounds like more corruption or incompetence in the Home Office and the crisis in schools.
