Summary

With the NHS in crisis and strikes ongoing – will the Government’s New Year’s Resolution be to get a grip? Then further afield, we look to the alarming covid situation in China and a new Congress being sworn in in the United States. Plus, a few dates for your diary – there might even be some bits to look forward to… In our first show of 2023, Alex Andreou talks to Andrew Harrison to outline the year ahead.  “Everyone is incredibly scared, it’s not nice to live in a country and feel like if something happens to you nobody will turn up.” – Alex Andreou  “The government is doing so poorly it thinks a confrontation with the unions will help it.” – Alex Andreou  “The public has realised Brexit was a mistake, that is unshakable now.” – Alex Andreou “Things could get very messy on day one. There will be a lot of battles in Congress.” – Alex Andreou  Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/bunkercast  Presented by Andrew Harrison with Alex Andreou.
