The Barge that Flopped — Start Your Week with Alex Andreou and Ros Taylor

The Bunker

Aug 14 2023 • 32 mins

The Bibby Stockholm plan has been beset by legionella. Who could have seen this coming? The Tories want us to leave the European Convention on Human Rights, why are they obsessed with chaos? Plus, this week is ‘health week’. Given that doctors are on strike, what could possibly go wrong? We also have an update on wildfires in Maui, the latest from Niger’s military coup, and the stories you may have missed. Ros Taylor is joined by Alex Andreou to give you the news to look out for in the week ahead. “The Government couldn’t organise a fire in a match factory.” – Alex Andreou “Sunak has all of his plans pinned on the weather.” – Alex Andreou “Labour’s plan is an unsexy but important one: to make the state work again.” Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/bunkercast  Written and presented by Ros Taylor and Alex Andreou.
