Summary

After a quick catch-up on Tiers, Boris & Wonder Woman, I get into it with author and Left Wing commentator Paul Embery. Paul has been Labour all his life, but is a contentious figure among the woke Left.

Here he explains his old fashioned Labour roots, how Brexit cost him his job and much more. 

(We also have another instalment of fart-gate in the letters)

Of course, we all knew that this was going to happen is that we're not going to get the Christmas that we were promised. We can't, we can't have that after this year where we've had so much taken away from us.
