George Osborne: The Man Who Wrecked Britain
George Osborne now graces our TV screens as an oh-so-wise pundit, dispensing his informed and learned tidbits about British politics like a detached observer.

This rehabilitation of monsters - and the failure to hold the powerful to account - is why we will keep suffering over and over again.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-owen-jones-podcast.
