Summary

The shackles may well be on for the public, but they are well and truly off for the Thought Police as Mike Graham and Kevin O'Sullivan return. Today they discuss: why lockdown 2 was a terrible idea, Boris Johnson going into hiding to suit himself, the recent Cummings and goings from the government, lefties leading the green agenda, vaccine concerns, a counterproductive test and trace system, Carrie playing PM, getting back to work, Matt Hancock's gormless arrogance, the future of the Tories now two Brexiteers have gone, reopening the economy, the public sector having it all their own way, the death of businesses, being taxed in multiple ways, the upcoming Brexit deal, Ed Davey, the bloated irrelevance that is the House of Lords, Jolyon Maugham, and why you shouldn't trust a human rights lawyer. You should however put your faith in the Thought Police. They'll never let you down.

You can follow the boys on Twitter. Mike is: @IROMG, Kevin is @TVKev and you'll find the podcast too: @ThoughtPoliceTP.
