Summary

In this week’s episode, host Steve Anglesey begins by dissecting James Cleverly's comments on the government's response to the Ukrainian refugee crisis, concluding that Britain is only really world beating in one category - failure. Broadcaster and journalist Jonty Bloom then joins the podcast to discuss one very angry annual farmer's conference. He shares his thoughts on how the industry has been lied to, how the situation for British agriculture is only going to get worse and why Keir Starmer is right to, at least for now, not back rejoin. Plus, Ann Widdecombe, Priti Patel and Daniel Kawczynski MP are all in the Hall of Shame this week. Enjoyed this episode? Let us know by tweeting @TheNewEuropean.
