Cattus mortuus est – START YOUR WEEK with Ros Taylor

Will bribes for Deliveroo and Uber be enough to persuade recalcitrant youth to get their jabs? Are we nearing herd immunity on COVID? Is Tony Blair to blame for food shortages because his university drive produced a generation of egghead boffins who can’t drive an HGV? And with thousands of kids catastrophically behind on their schooling, the Government has the solution: bring back Latin. Ros Taylor nobis narrat de septem praemisit. 

• “A Deliveroo voucher isn't going to turn a hardcore anti-vaxxer.” 
• “You should see Gavin Williamson's ratings. They are off the scale bad.”
• “The Government's Latin announcement is a bauble for fans of The History Boys.”

Presented and produced by Andrew Harrison. Assistant producers Jelena Sofronijevic and Jacob Archbold. Music by Kenny Dickinson. Audio production by Alex Rees. THE BUNKER is a Podmasters Production
