The Two Matts

Is Boris Johnson OK and can Keir Starmer win in the polls?

In this week’s episode, host Steve Anglesey promises not to lose his place or make references to Peppa Pig, unlike Boris Johnson during his CBI conference address. He ponders what colour the sky is in Dominic Raab's world after he claimed the speech was a success and that the prime minister is excelling in his performance. Comedian Mitch Benn joins the podcast to discuss Boris's history with unprepared rhetoric, what Keir Starmer can do to increase his standing in the polls, and Nadine Dorries' strange approach to Channel 4. Plus, Nadine Dorries also returns to the Hall of Shame this week and joining her is Priti Patel and Nigel Farage. Enjoyed this episode and the podcast's new shorter, snappier format?
