Summary

Mark is joined by poet Luke Wright along with Elliot Steel as he tries to make sense of the Diane Abbott row, Barry Humphries being claimed by the anti-woke brigade – and what happened when Elliot, age three, took his toy ladybird to a football match! Plus, Mike Concrete interviews a performance poet – and a woman who Mark heard on a phone-in show objects to all these people being flown here from Sudan. (She's sick of it, Jeremy!)
