Summary
Jemma and Marina open with an emotional appeal...For a group of people who feel petrified, forced to flee their homes against their will. They're talking of course, about... non-doms.
Then it's straight into the latest from Liz Truss' deluded book tour in which Jemma and Marina try to outdo each other with the worst clips of our former PM that they can find. They discuss Truss' latest bid to ditch the Supreme Court, leave the ECHR and her attempt to ditch The Equality Act - when she was equalities minister no less.
After a few more excerpts from her book, the ladies move onto satirical takes, which are harder to distinguish from reality than you'd first think.
The final segment has a good laugh at those on the right who are dabbling with Artificial Intelligence to show us what the world should look like according to them, and it isn't pretty - nor even vaguely plausible.
Then it's a pic n mix of delicious underrated tweets and clips, with a pudding from Larry and Paul about Prince Andrew.

| 0:44.5 | And with the world in a very perilous spot, with people unable to pay their bills or feed their kids, |
| 0:51.7 | I want us all to spare a thought for a group of people who find themselves |
| 0:55.5 | petrified, who find themselves forced to leave their country against their will. And I'm talking, |
| 1:01.8 | of course, about non-doms. Because, according to an article in The Guardian, the chief executive |
| 1:10.0 | of an accountancy firm's name, |
| 1:11.9 | Blick Rothenberg, that specialises in advising the very, very, very rich, said, |
| 1:18.8 | some of my clients, some of the richest people in the country, were petrified of plans to abolish the non-dominiscar regime, |
| 1:26.2 | through which for the past 225 years, |
