Summary

In this episode I try to give a very normal bloke response to the findings of the Cass Report. I won't lie, it's a heavy subject, so luckily there was also a fun YouGov survey this week asking the public silly questions about Sunak and Starmer which I get stuck into. I also reveal one of the most childish things I've ever done.
