Ep 111: I predict a riot...and a sacking.
The Trawl - A podcast by Jemma Forte & Marina Purkiss
Get on your knees... It's Tory MP remembrance Sunday photo-op time! And boy, did they all get the memo - because nothing says heartfelt moment of solemnity like a staged pic for the socials. Jemma and Marina discuss the events of Saturday when a brainless crew of Suella's biggest fans descended onto the streets of London to defend...the realm. Did The Mail take any responsibility for their whipping up of hate? Did they f*ck. Instead, their post-event coverage centered on a "jostled" Michael Gove who just happened to find himself amid a Palestine protest group. The ladies discuss the fun day out had by the far-right 'patriots' - because nothing says respecting our war dead like a punch-up at the Cenotaph. Then...ding-dong the witch is dead. Braverman gets the boot and becomes the proud author of one of the bitchiest resignation letters of all time with more than a few self-owns. The ladies then have some jungle chat - both incredulous that a figure as damaging as divisive as Farage was deemed a fantastic new protagonist for a family TV show. And we wonder why the country is in the state it's in... Then it's onto some underrated tweets, with a splash of sass, including a gem from Joe Lycett, before an impeccably on-brand pudding from Munya Chawawa.
