Summary

Mike (Graham) and Kev (O'Sullivan) are back for a second week with the New European traveller Matt Kelly still otherwise indisposed. As the government continues to impinge on our daily lives whilst we're in the midst of a pandemic, the boys' frustration has reached boiling point.  

Today they discuss: holiday plans being impacted by COVID-19, false information about the spread of the disease, whether progress is being made in the fight against it (despite what we're being told), Grant Shapps' plankery, pathetic excuses for not wearing a mask, the country being turned into a nanny state, losing five pounds to save the NHS, junk food adverts, spending our money on cycling, cyclists, bloody cyclists, the Tory government poking its nose in where it doesn't belong, protests in Portland, the dissolution of real journalism, the influence of the outspoken woke, people with absolutely no sense of humour and boring, belligerent barristers. It's the audio version of the rage room, it's the Thought Police.  

You can follow the boys on Twitter. Mike is: @IROMG, Kevin is @TVKev and you'll find the podcast too: @ThoughtPoliceTP.

Meanwhile if you'd like to send an email to the boys the address is: thoughtpolicepod@gmail.com
