Ep 93: Crumbling Schools and Keegan's kickbacks

<p>It's back to school week, or at least it is if you don't go to one of the 104 schools which have been deemed unsafe due to crumbling concrete. If you were in a position of power and had been warned for years that school buildings weren't safe, what would you do? </p><p>Jemma and Marina are hot and bothered, in the week when Britain went all Club Tropicana weather wise - only the drinks aren't free, nothing is and the price of a Tory government is getting more exorbitant by the minute. </p><br /><p>They discuss Gillian Keegan's disastrous week and wonder why more people aren't calling out the £34 MILLION refurb she deemed necessary for her offices. Yes, that's right. THIRTY FOUR MILLION. An old Trawl catchphrase is used once again - regular listeners will know which one. </p><br /><p>Meanwhile, Lee Anderson has been striding round a shopping centre being rude to people and Colin from Portsmouth has been on the blower again.</p><br /><p>Thank you for sharing and do tweet us @MarinaPurkiss @jemmaforte @TheTrawlPodcast</p><br /><p>Patreon</p><p><a href="https://patreon.com/TheTrawlPodcast">https://patreon.com/TheTrawlPodcast</a></p><p> </p><p>Learn more about your ad choices.
