As host of The Mash Report in the late-2010’s, The Bugle, and regular appearances on your TV screens on successful shows such as Taskmaster, Nish has come to be one of the most recognisable figures in British entertainment.So join us as Nish Kumar dissects a turbulent autumn in British politics and sets out the landscape for what on earth progressives need to do between now and the next election.Support the showEnjoyed the podcast and want to be a live audience member at our next episode?
