Summary

Time for some more common sense among the mass hysteria as Mike Graham and Kevin O'Sullivan take to the Thought Police once again. Today they discuss: the BBC's woke new series and ludicrously gratuitous overspending, Gary Lineker's hypocrisy, tiered lockdowns across the country and why they are a waste of time, why waiting is sometimes better than doing, propaganda being promulgated in the press, the faults of the Track and Trace system, myths surrounding hospital bed capacity, the idiot who committed a lewd act on webcam, crunch time in the race for the White House and the importance of the floating voters, Jacinda Ardern's running of New Zealand, and those who work - or perhaps woke - from home. It's the boys who will get you out of bed in the morning - 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.
