Summary

In this week’s episode, host Steve Anglesey hears what our listeners' will be doing to mark 23rd June, six years since the Brexit referendum took place. Then journalist and author John Kampfner joins the podcast to discuss the diversion politics designed to save Boris Johnson's skin as he weaponises Brexit, how Europe has grown tired of Britain's parliamentary antics and how Britain is viewed abroad while they continue to unravel.
