Ep 80: Rip-off boats, rip-off degrees & stolen kidneys...

<p>Jemma and Marina open with a toast to the 10th anniversary of the Same Sex Marriage Act - the way Cameron and Sunak have been tweeting about it would make you think the Conservatives are to praise for it - spoiler: they're not. </p><br /><p>Then it's on to the trade deal of the century - the £12 trillion trade boost to the UK via the CPTPP! What joy...the ladies ponder what the Conservatives will spend it all on..except it's not £12 trillion, and it's already been spent. Winning. </p><br /><p>Next they discuss the Govt of fiscal responsibility's latest purchase which delivers incredible value for money for the tax payer - quite literally: incredible. </p><br /><p>Then it's onto the thread that had Jemma and Marina in stitches (ironically), because whatever you do, don't take medical advice from Boris Johnson's ex, Petronella Wyatt...</p><br /><p>Finished off with a pudding from @Exploding_Heads, and poor Colin from Portsmouth is furious with the by-election results.</p><br /><p>Thank you for sharing and do tweet us @MarinaPurkiss @jemmaforte @TheTrawlPodcast</p><br /><p> </p><p>Learn more about your ad choices.
