Sunak’s a Tightwad – plus Ashes to Bashes! Big beef at the cricket
About this episode
We read the papers so you don’t have to… Today: Billionaire spouse Rishi Sunak in cheapskate charity donation shocker. The Aussies sneak a win in the cricket prompting “apoplectic chuntering” in the Mail and Telegraph. And would you rather be boiled in the bag than cremated after you die?
The Critic’s parliamentary sketchwriter Rob Hutton and comedian Grainne Maguire join Miranda Sawyer to hack through the wall of newsprint.
