Alex Andreou and Kenny Campbell talk through the week's political news, with a focus on the end of Musk's chemical romance with the White House, Trump's well-earned "TACO" moniker, and Harvard's resistance.

Also, we look back at the RBS bail-out and how it continues to be felt in our politics today.

PLUS - Watch out. Robert Jenrick's about. Why has our politics become so small, meand, and petty?

“The big difference between Trump’s first term and this one is that everyone around him seems resigned to the idea that they can’t make policy, consult, or shape his thinking ahead of time. The whole outfit has swung into hearing his latest brain-fart, same time as we do, then double down and pretend that it is the best plan ever.”

“Jenrick is not a vigilante. He’s not an action man. His defining quality is flaccidity. His reputation is that of a petty, mean, small man, who paints over kids’ murals. So, while the stunt might have worked for someone else, for Jenrick it simply cements his reputation as a petty, mean, small man.”
