Hello and welcome to the season 3 finale, I am joined by favourite Folarin and Ade.  In this episode, we discussed a wide range of topics, from Matt Hancock's extra-martial affair to the England Football team losing the Euro Finals and the racism that followed afterward. We discussed Dominic Cumming's interview with Laura Kuenssberg of the BBC and if there will be any implications for Borris Johnson? Finally, we talked about whether or not the Tories got it wrong starting a culture war with the England football team and if they have indeed lost that war? It's a very packed episode so we hope you sit back and enjoy it. The UK Parliament is going on recess from Friday the 23 July 2021 and so are we! We shall be back in September with a whole new season and hopefully back in the studio.
