Hello and welcome to rock and roll politics, the weekly podcast with me, Steve Richards.

Thank you so much for tuning in.

As ever, we've got so much to cover in this time we've got together.

Well, actually, before we get moving onto the substance,

website. That's for December the 16th Rock and Roll Politics,

the Christmas special, where over a glass or two of wine, I think we're going to need it,

we'll reflect on this year that we have been experiencing a year that will fascinate historians in hundreds of years time and will

dare to look ahead as well to 2021. So hopefully a lot of you or all of you will be able to join me
