Good morning, welcome to the Independent Republic of Mike Graham right here on the home of

0:18.3

Common Sense. It is the one and only talk radio. The dust

0:20.9

has settled this morning on the euphoria created the Tory Party conference yesterday by Boris Johnson,

0:25.7

with his loving with his own government. His performance was flawless. The jokes were

0:29.9
