Summary

You wait forever for a Conservative Remainer on the show… and then two come along at once. This week SIMON ALLISON of “Torymainer” group Citizens4Britain joins us to discuss the Tory conference gagging Brexit dissenters, how the Party of Business became the Party of F**k Business, why Tories need to Take Back Control of their own party… and where next for a country with a Government that can’t govern. Plus: What’s behind the hazy notion of Theresa May’s offer of an unconditional Right To Remain for EU citizens, even under No Deal? Who’s pushing it and who’s blocking it? Do Remainers all have to wear SuperDry now that its co-founder is backing the People’s Vote? We brace ourselves for those technical papers. And the long-awaited return of #AskRemainiacs. “If the Tory Party really has lost touch with the intellectual classes then it’s going to become the Stupid Party of the 1830s forever.” This week’s REMAINIACS is presented by Naomi Smith with Nina Schick and Ian Dunt. Producer: Andrew Harrison. Audio production: Jack Claramunt. Remainiacs is a Podmasters production.
