Summary

Mike Graham and Kevin O'Sullivan debate the week's hottest issues including: young footballers doing what young footballers do - Icelandic models, pushy parents with unrealistic expectations, Mike and Kev's football careers, why kids need to get a grip, Jonathan Van-Tam, the twisted statistics which keep us all on edge, mask etiquette, confusing public advice, why news about the virus is always negative, the potentially catastrophic effect of another lockdown on the economy, Michel Barnier, quarantine exemptions, the British fishing furore, Brexit negotiations, Lisa Nandy, Extinction Rebellion, and what might be next for the UK. It's the podcast that tells it like it is, it's the Thought Police.
