Summary

After our emergency podcast on Monday it’s time for a more considered take on the Government’s disastrous week... and the verdict is still “WHAAAAAT?” Does Theresa May still have a Chequers policy or just a chequered future? After BOREXIT, will Johnson become a backbench thorn in May’s side, emerge as the next Prime Minister or just go back to being Britain’s least lovable music hall turn? Will anyone ever mention David Davis again? All this and more we will examine. This week’s REMAINIACS is presented by Dorian Lynskey with Ian Dunt and Alex Andreou. Audio production by Jack Claramunt. Remainiacs is a Podmasters production. Help us to #OwnTheRemoan!
