Summary

Europe: it’s the Final Countdown. On this week’s show we look at what to expect – and what can go wrong – in the twelve-month road to our inglorious exit from the EU. Plus! After Christopher Wylie’s testimony to the Culture Committee, is the Referendum result irrevocably tainted? Does Keir Starmer care more about keeping Labour together than keeping Britain in the Single Market? Why is Ros obsessed with whale meat? And can the Brexiters successfully abolish time and space? “Journalism is a gun. Aim it right and you can blow a kneecap off the world.” – Warren Ellis This week’s REMAINIACS is presented by Dorian Lynskey with Ros Taylor and Ian Dunt. Audio production: Sophie Black.
