Summary

In this week's trawl through political happenings in the Twittersphere, Marina Purkiss and Jemma Forte rummage in a tombola of Tories, to discover what they've been up to. They find a former chancellor wrestling with HMRC, 30p Lee's latest saga, Suella Braverman reacting to a holocaust survivor and a confession about the RMT strikes. Plus there's a saucy little extract from Prince Harry's book and a youngster speaks up in our underrated tweet of the week. Seen a great tweet? Twit us @TheTrawlPodcast.
