We risk becoming an island of strange.

Hello and welcome to The Troll, where we scroll through social media so you don't have to.

I'm Marina Perkis.

And I'm Gemma Forte.

And this week we can talk about the fact that Stama has struck not one but two trade deals,

one with India and one with the US.

He's also been on a sort of political

lad's trip with Macron and the German Chancellor Merz to persuade Putin to stop being a

warmongering bastard. And he's also turned into, in my opinion, a budget Enoch Powell. Oh, and a new

pope has been chosen, interest rates been cut by the Bank of England, and those

absolute wrongens who cut down the Sycamore Gatry have been charged. So quite weak.

Not lots going to cover all of these shenanigans in no particular order because, well, frankly,

that's how we roll at the trawl. It won't be chronological,

but it is, well, chronologically necessary. And if that doesn't make any sense to you, then the

actual politics itself will frie your minds. And our chaotic planning will still make more sense

than anything Trump has done since getting into office. So that said, we'll

touch upon the Indian trade deal in this one and will lead to what the hell is happening here?

Because while Starmour is being competent and sensible on some parts of the world stage,

here at home, when it comes to domestic strategy and policy, Labor are screwing it up beyond belief and seemingly

just rolling out the red carpet for reform. And while the first clip we're going to play you today

is amusing, it's still a bit rose-tinted for me. This is Lily Dracott on TikTok. Do you know what I miss?

Lighthearted government scandal. Do you remember when Matt Hancock was kissing receptionist in his office?
