Britain’s vaccination programme is undoubtedly working. Do we have to grit out teeth and admit our political opponents have done at least one thing right? Healthcare commentator Roy Lilley tells us the mood among NHS workers. Plus: small business goes under the political bus, the murky world of doses for data, will we ever travel for fun again – and what the hell is happening in Italy? Ros Taylor and Ayesha Hazarika join Andrew Harrison for the weekly Bunker panel show.

“The NHS is on the ragged edge. It’s hanging on by its fingernails” – Roy Lilley
“The vaccine rollout will be a powerful argument in favour of paying more tax for the NHS” - Ros Taylor
“Labour was always associated with red tape. Now the Conservatives are strangling business with it” - Ayesha Hazarika

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