Cambridge Analytica’s data shenanigans, Jeremy Corbyn’s anti-semitism shenanigans, and Harriet Harman’s all-women leadership shortlist shenanigans are the three topics this week.

The totally-not-Russian attempted assassination of a former Russian spy, a grovelling apology from National Geographic about its racist history, and the shortchanging of our dear Queenie (er, Claire Foy? – Ed) are the three topics this week.
Joining us are Steve and Richie of What Am Politics?, the podcast that breaks down big political issues into comedic bite size bits. When you’re done here, listen to our slightly inebriated appearance on their show discussing more bloody Brexit.
