Heatwaves, Hot Air Takes & Farage's £5 Million Problem
from The Trawl
Last week, politics wasn't the only thing making Jemma and Marina hot under the collar - the weather was and they were melting. Literally.Britain has sweltered through record-breaking temperatures, so the Trawl ladies look at the growing mountain of evidence that climate change is no longer a future problem because it's happening right now. So why are so many TV pundits still insisting it's "just summer"? From GB News to LBC, they dissect the spectacularly bad takes from people sitting comfortably in air-conditioned studios while teachers, commuters and NHS staff deal with the reality.Then they turn to Nigel Farage's increasingly uncomfortable media tour, as questions mount over his £5 million gift from a crypto billionaire. After years of demanding transparency from everyone else, why is he suddenly so keen to tell everyone to mind their own business?Expect plenty of righteous fury, a few laughs and Cilla Black makes an unexpected return.
