Some of the London Underground tube lines have had a rebrand and one of the commentators at the Daily Telegraph isn’t happy. Apparently the Lionesses, the Suffragettes and the Windrush generation are all ‘hard left’. So there you go. If you find yourself in the capital and use the tube, you’re basically a communist. 

Obviously it’s all Sadiq Kahn’s fault and yet what Conservative HQ have tried to do to the Mayor really is something to be appalled by. Marina and Jemma listen to a clip they put out, where they deliberately cut Khan off at a very crucial point, just as he was about to correct himself. It being The Trawl, the Trawl ladies play you the longer version too. That way you can judge for yourself what the truth of the matter is and whether the chairman of the Tory party’s defence is good enough. 

Meanwhile, across the pond, ex Fox News host, Tucker Carlson, has been fawning over Putin in a bizarre interview and extolling the virtues of living in Russia. He also seems entirely comfortable with the notion that all leaders kill people. He uttered this statement a mere few days before Putin’s opponent, Alexei Navalny, did indeed get killed. Jemma and Marina pay tribute to Navalny’s bravery and hope his death wasn’t in vain. 

Pudding is unusually emotional but that seems fitting for this episode. You never know when your time might be up.
