Description

You might have noticed how terrible Rishi Sunak’s government is on basically everything, yet, if you listen to his cabinet you might think it’s all going swimmingly. How do we survive the next few months of a government eating itself alive without losing our sanity? Plus, why does British politics find it so hard to deal with religious issues? That’s Oh God, What Now? with guest Times Radio’s Hugo Rifkind.


“It’s like watching a man who’s watching his house falling down, running from small DIY job to DIY job but actually making it all worse.” – Ros Taylor.

“I think they think they’re in it to win it, it’s just bonkers, the dogs in the street can see they’re about to lose an election from the centre.” – Hugo Rifkind.

“The problems with authority that Sunak has is that he’s literally not meant to be there.” – Hugo Rifkind.
