Summary

This week’s trawl sees our political pair yank at the short and curlies of Brexit but not before pondering disgraced PM Truss’ attendance at the remembrance service. They also explore a few bits of good news from the US and Brazil, as well as share some great things the Germans are doing to try to avert the climate catastrophe. There was so much to discuss this week that part two will be along on Friday. Seen a great tweet? Twit us @TheTrawlPodcast. This is a public episode.
