Summary
The Labour government has signed a deal with the EU that brings significant improvements to the agreement negotiated by Johnson and Lord Frosty Frost… their deal being a reminder of the many calamitous developments in the wild fourteen years of misrule.

Rock & Roll Politics is live in the main concert hall at Kings Place on July 17th. Tickets here.
