Summary

The battle to keep Britain in the EU is over but with Parliament neutered, Brexit needs more scrutiny than ever. This week: Does Boris Johnson’s “plea for unity” amount to a pass-agg order to shut up and accept whatever Brexit be fancies? From continuity Corbynistas to closet Centrist Dads, we run the rule over the Labour leadership candidates. Uri Geller applies for a job with Classic Dom. And Ingrid talks for the first and last time about her mum becoming a Tory MP. Yes, Remainiacs is back and we’ll keep Brexit under the microscope as long as we’re needed. And that could be a very long time indeed. “There’s a reason they call it truth and reconciliation. We haven’t had the truth — so how can we have the reconciliation?” Presented by Dorian Lynskey with Naomi Smith, Ingrid Oliver and Alex Andreou. Produced by Andrew Harrison. Audio production and script by Alex Rees. Remainiacs is a Podmasters production. Get every new episode of Remainiacs a whole day early when you back us on the Patreon crowdfunding platform.
