Summary

Tory sleaze is in focus yet again – how will Boris Johnson handle the backlash this week? Amid the Chris Pincher scandal, can Number 10’s line on the matter stand? Plus, on July 4, we look across to the United States and the latest political fallout there. And what action is needed to tackle the rise in COVID cases? Alex Andreou is joined by Yasmeen Serhan to lay out the week ahead.  "There are a lot of allegations of sexual misconduct involving Tory MPs." – Alex Andreou  "There is a deep desire on the part of Number 10 to say, ‘This matter has been settled.’” – Yasmeen Serhan "There are so many allegations facing the Conservative Party that you could start to think it was normal." – Yasmeen Serhan "The Supreme Court has historically been seen as an ahistoric institution, but no longer." – Yasmeen Serhan “You should brace yourself for running into COVID again." – Yasmeen Serhan  www.patreon.com/bunkercast  Presented by Alex Andreou with Yasmeen Serhan.
