Sunak's D-Day blunder, is Farage using dog whistles?, and Mike Lynch
About this episode
David and Simon analyse what is arguably the biggest PR moment in British electoral history - Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's decision to leave the D-Day celebrations in Normandy early. Simon takes us behind the scenes at Number 10 to try to work out exactly how things went so wrong for the PM.
Nigel Farage - he's been accused of 'dog whistle' politics. What are they, and how do they work?
And - the acquittal of tech tycoon Mike Lynch. What are the lessons to be learned from surviving the nine circles of media hell?
