Quiet Riot, Episode 5 – A political farce in three acts

This week, Alex Andreou and Naomi Smith are joined by special guests Henry Morris – he of Secret Tory fame and now unleashing a Shakespearean take on the Downing St rabble – and Jim Blagden, Associate Director at More In Common. There's a recap of the General Election so far – just 14 days to go people – and we ask if there's a parallel universe in which Rishi Sunak is leading his party to something other than an abject, miserable meltdown. And we gift you a tantalising taste of Henry's new book, The Tories: A Tragedy. Be amazed at Henry's tribute to Shakespeare, be amused by his acerbic take on the Truss tragedy, and be agog as Alex goes full thesp for a few overwhelming moments. Verily, 'tis a spectacle for the ages that will bring tears to your ears. Plus your favourite features, including The News In Sixty Seconds and the ever-so-slightly-abusive Troll With It.
