Shirley Valentine, Baked Spuds & Budget Bollox: It's Politics Honest

<p>From&nbsp;baked potatoes&nbsp;to&nbsp;pension raids, it’s another rollercoaster week in the weird and woeful world of UK politics.</p><br /><p>Jemma and Marina pay tribute to the glorious&nbsp;Pauline Collins, salute a life well lived, and then plunge straight into the nation’s latest highs and lows, including the latest (Not Prince) Andrew news. It involves a late night snack and what amounts to culinary catastrophe frankly. Somehow this segues into chat about&nbsp;Kim K’s thongs with a difference, and&nbsp;Rachel Reeves&nbsp;apparently testing just how unpopular she can make saving for retirement.</p><br /><p>Throw in a Tory montage, some tax turmoil, and a side of existential dread, and you’ve got a trawl that’s equal parts hilarious and horrifying.</p><br /><p>Thank you for sharing and do tweet us @MarinaPurkiss @jemmaforte @TheTrawlPodcast</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Patreon</p><p><a href="https://patreon.com/TheTrawlPodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://patreon.com/TheTrawlPodcast</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Youtube</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@TheTrawl" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@TheTrawl</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Twitter</p><p><a href="https://twitter.com/TheTrawlPodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/TheTrawlPodcast</a></p><br /><p><br /></p><p>If you’ve even mildly enjoyed The Trawl, you’ll love the unfiltered, no-holds-barred extras from Jemma &amp; Marina over on Patreon, including:</p><br /><p>• Exclusive episodes of The Trawl Goss – where Jemma and Marina spill backstage gossip, dive into their personal lives, and often forget the mic is on</p><p>• Early access to The Trawl Meets…</p><p>• Glorious ad-free episodes</p><br /><p>Plus, there’s a bell-free community of over 3,300 legends sparking brilliant chat.</p><br /><p>And it’s your way to support the pod which the ladies pour their hearts, souls (and occasional anxiety) into.
