Description

The Government sanctions explosive leaks of noxious material, leaving the country nauseated. But enough about the Budget. As National Sewage Week comes to a glorious end, we reach around the political S-Bend to see what Rishi Sunak has left in Britain’s economic pan. Also we welcome guest MICHAEL BRADDICK, author of 'A Useful History of Britain: The Politics of Getting Things Done’ to ask if ‘Britishness’ really exists. Plus, what would our panel do if they were dictators?
* “Clean water would bankrupt the water industry? I see problem there…” – Alex Andreou
* “If you drink liqueurs on domestic flights, this is the Budget to help you.” – Ian Dunt
* “If you want people to feel British, then make Britain work for them. Don’t just tell them they’re British” – Michael Braddick
