Johnson has been busy promoting his latest tome so the Trawl ladies thought they’d give you an update on how it’s doing.
Then, Jemma and Marina are astounded by the flagrant voter manipulation which is occurring in the States. There’s a clip you’ll hardly believe. Brexit certainly wasn’t the only moment where ‘Dividing and Conquering’ was the MO. People are also divided when it comes to seeing Trump donning an apron to work in Macdonalds.
On a personal note, Jemma is feeling sad about a tree. Is the pointless destroying of a healthy tree symbolic of what the world is going through? Or is she just going round the bend? Marina is on the fence. Unlike the tree because it’s been cut down.
As ever there are some fabulous under rated tweets.
Enjoy!

0:47.3 | And I'm Marina Perkis. |
0:49.0 | And a few episodes back, we discussed Boris Johnson's forthcoming book launch. So we thought it only right that we should |

1:04.3 | is they're not too bad, right? But it won't be breaking any records. And as reported by The Mirror, Boris Johnson's number |

1:21.3 | thought that was a book about the gut health of penguins. No, there were two separate books. |
1:26.6 | One was about gut health and one was about |

2:03.3 | Absolutely. I tell you what, it's quite interesting, |
2:12.2 | some of the context. So they gave him a whacking, whacking advance. And for those of you who don't know the advance, you get to keep. That's it. It's yours, no matter what, even if the book flunks. And then what happens from |
