Summary

In this end of year episode I talk about the latest outrage over Ricky Gervais's comedy and the attempts to call Noel Coward 'queer'. Then it's on to a political review of 2023 and some predictions for the election year coming up, including why Rishi may be like Rose from Titanic and how Keir might start talking about himself in the 3rd person.
