Description

As the Government dishes out fresh lessons in doggedness – does the strike stalemate risk a brain drain for Britain? We discuss health workers ditching the UK for Australia for better money (and weather). Plus, why doesn’t Westminster work? It’s a question we all want to answer – and Ian Dunt has in his new book. And, with *major* spoiler warnings, we talk about the Succession latest. 


“I hate the word vocation because it tends to be a way of not paying people for their skill.” – Hannah Fearn 

“Being a doctor is the ultimate non-bullsh*t job, it’s something we totally rely on.” – Hannah Fearn 

“Maybe we owe health care workers more than a round of applause, maybe we owe them money.” – Andrew Harrison
