Summary

Truss and Kwarteng’s mini-budget madness has sparked a Black Wednesday 2.0 – will the quids be alright? Plus, as Starmer takes Keir of business with a successful outing at conference, we look at Labour’s standing. This week’s special guest is former Labour minister turned mystery novelist Alan Johnson. “It’s too long ago to blame the last Labour government for everything so now they’re blaming one that doesn’t exist yet.” – Ros Taylor  “This looks like two economics A-Level students have been let loose. The inexperience they’re displaying is just mind-boggling.” – Alan Johnson  “There is no easy way out for them and neither should there be given the magnitude of error that they’ve made.” – Alan Johnson  “To climb down from this plan would be a repudiation of everything Truss stands for.” – Ros Taylor “You can almost feel the mood of the country shifting towards Keir Starmer.” – Alan Johnson www.patreon.com/ohgodwhatnow Tickets to Doomsday Watch Live: https://www.tickettext.co.uk/etmejHAuba Presented by Alex Andreou with Ian Dunt and Ros Taylor.
