EPISODE 37

We are back with a barnstorming edition on the latest comings and goings of Rishi Sunak's government. After a turbulent week, the Home Secretary, Suella Braverman has been sacked, replaced by the Foreign Secretary, James Cleverly, who has in turn been replaced by none other than former Prime Minister David Cameron!

We dissect the scathing letter sent by Suella Braverman to Rishi Sunak and look at just how it is possible that the former PM, who is no longer a sitting MP just became the one of the most important politicians in the land!
