Summary

The genial Alun Cochrane makes a welcome return as we discuss the starter gun being fired on local elections. We wonder whether the triple-lock is sustainable (whilst also knowing we're risking the wrath of boomers). Then we ask how Keir Starmer thinks not getting into a war will translate into votes for local govt. Also, what's a good/bad night for the Tories? No-one knows. In the Patron only we discuss the little sh*ts ram-raiding shops and what to do about it.  CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’.
