Summary

What is wrong with seeking a better life? Marina and Jemma take a look at the so-called “migrant crisis” overseen by disgraced - and recently fired and rehired - Home Secretary Suella Braverman. Our political pair also come up with some slogans to help the raw sewage situation, ponder reports of the former PM’s phone being hacked by Russian intelligence, and discuss a hereditary peer who’s taken a swipe at the Royal Society of the Protection of Birds. Meanwhile, there’s GBeebies presenters concerned that attending COP27 won’t achieve anything, but can they explain what the point of attending PMQs is?! Oh and don’t worry, the reaction to Matt Hancock gets a mention. Seen a great tweet?
