Description

We read the papers so you don’t have to. Today: Rebels without a clue. Sunak’s on the ropes, both wings of the Tory party are rebelling… and the PM’s forgotten how to use a phone. Hate couture. Fashion giant Zara’s new photo campaign provokes angry backlash from Gaza protestors. Plus, Turning the air blue. There’s far more swearing on the TV than there used to be, the Times is outraged… and even Doctor f***ing Who is at it. 

Alex von Tunzelmann is joined by journalist Rob Hutton of The Critic and comedian Fergus Craig.
