About this episode
Co-pilot Pearson is off on a special mission this week so Liam is joined in the cockpit by resident part time co-pilot, Tim Stanley.
As the news breaks of Donald Trump’s victory in the US Liam and Tim dissect the news tsunami from across the pond.
As the rest of the world comes to terms with what just happened, Tim describes why we shouldn’t be that surprised at the result, and Liam gives his economic prognosis.
Whilst back on UK soil, the Tory party welcomes a new leader but what do your co-pilots make of Queen Kemi?
Also boarding the rocket to discuss the fate of UK farming in wake of Labour’s first Budget is farmer Richard Payne, who delivers a harsh prognosis for the future of the profession.
