Sunday School: Pier and Loathing
Join Alex and Kenny as they paddle through Farage's coastal Clacton claptrap, and try to make sense of what actually happened on a night when an intergalactic waste receptacle went up against the far right.
They also look at Government plans to reform zero-hour contracts – these affect over a million workers and countless businesses too, so they are important as well as controversial.
Plus a fond farewell to Trump press supremo Karoline Leavitt. We might not like what she said but boy could she fight her corner.
