Summary

On the agenda: The headlong rush to an end nobody voted for, and why No Deal is a man-made asteroid strike. When is the right time for a No Confidence motion against the Government? Linguistic programming as Johnson drills the buzzphrase “undemocratic backstop” into the national mind. Scenario planning and horizon scanning. Ingrid – our secret agent within the Tory Party – finally succumbs to Stockholm Syndrome. The Government’s snappy 1,400 page No Deal for small businesses. And why food shortages, when they happen, will be all YOUR fault. “Every day in Parliament now matters. It could be that every sitting hour matters.” Presented by Dorian Lynskey with Ingrid Oliver and Alex Andreou. Produced by Andrew Harrison. Spy story music ‘Intruder’ courtesy of zapsplat.com.
