Description

Dominic Cummings gave a colourful account of life in Downing Street at the Covid inquiry this week. Other than him describing people as “morons” and “useless f**k-pigs” – what else did we learn? Plus, our guest this week is the public policy editor of the Financial Times, Peter Foster. He joins the panel to discuss his new book – What Went Wrong With Brexit And What We Can Do About It.

"Cummings knew perfectly well that Johnson was unfit to run the country, and still he elevated him to that position.” – Alex Andreou

“I feel profoundly angry at the casual nature with which they decided to play with people’s fate.” – Alex Andreou

“I think Brexit was always going to be messy.” – Peter Foster.

“It was almost as if they went to businesses and said you can go wild in the aisle, you can have whatever you want in the Brexit sweet shop!” – Peter Foster.
