Summary

Jemma and Marina are concerned for any Trawlers who may have been left unsettled after their recent chat about Stormzy's controversial McDonald's deal so they are delighted to read a statement on the matter. Though it is written by Michael Spicer so tongues should be placed firmly in cheeks.

There is an over view of some terrible behaviour from various MP's and then we're off to CPAC (Conservative Political Action Conference) or beep, beep, beep and beep as Marina aptly renames it!

It shouldn't be funny, but it is. The Trawl ladies discuss the spectacle of a grown man wielding a power tool, Nazi salutes and the utter gibberish coming from Truss and the unpatriotic maligning of Britain from Farage.

After all that some seeds of revolution are desperately needed. And Jemma and Marina think they've come up trumps (pardon the pun). There follow some incredible clips who are not going to take what's happening either quietly or lying down.

Under rated Tweets end the ep along with pudding from Trawl faves The Exploding Heads.
