Summary

Chief political commentator The Independent John Rentoul kicks off today’s show to discuss what the future holds for Prime Minister Boris Johnson amidst Sue Gray’s latest report, as well as Emmanuel Macron’s recent victory in the French elections against Marine Le Pen. Mail on Sunday Columnist Peter Hitchens returns for his weekly segment to discuss the influx of so called ‘dead end degrees’ within British Universities, as well as the recent decision to extradite Julian Assange to the United States. Former Brexit Party MEP Belinda De Lucy joins Mike shortly after to discuss recent allegations made stating Shadow Secretary of State Angela Rayner tried to distract Boris Johnson recently in the House of Commons by crossing and uncrossing her legs in a ‘Basic Instinct’ fashion, and Spiked columnist Ella Whelan closes the show to discuss Googles new ‘inclusive language tool’ that will flash up warnings if writers use words that “may not be inclusive to all readers” and will suggest alternatives. All that and so much more, so tune in!
