It’s the hope that kills you. We didn’t have lots, but c’mon Rishi – Braverman? You know when a band reforms, with a couple of members swapped out for session musicians? Imagine they were always crap and it’s not a band, it’s the Cabinet. We chat through the no-shuffle. Plus, guest Adam Wagner, author of Emergency State: How We Lost Our Freedoms in the Pandemic and Why it Matters, to discuss his book and the imminent torching of more EU regulations.

“If you’re going to do sensible politics, you’re not going to give Braverman any job. Sunak has given up the chance to be mature.” – Ian Dunt
“This government knows this is their last chance to win back any credibility in the country.” – Ros Taylor
“Sunak just looks like a political hangover.” – Ian Dunt
“Braverman was genuinely the worst Attorney General, and as Home Secretary she was a walking disaster.” – Adam Wagner
