When should the government implement their Covid Plan B.... and was there a Plan A?
About this episode
In this week’s episode, host Steve Anglesey discusses the other elephant in the room - Covid-19. Dr Joe Pajak joins him for a fascinating, and concerning, analysis of the rising Covid rates and shares some personal anecdotes on how his son has been affected by long Covid since catching the virus in March 2020. When will the government act, and are we in for a catastrophic winter if they don't? Also in politics this week, the 2021 budget was announced and 'sewagegate' affected rivers around the UK - our host offers his take, and hears listeners thoughts, on both. Plus, Rishi Sunak, George Eustice, and Anne-Marie Trevelyan all feature in the Hall of Shame this week. Enjoyed this episode and the podcast's new shorter, snappier format?
