Early April 2021 ¦ Flags - The Right's Virtue Signal? ¦ Hartlepool - The Next Red Brick To Fall?
This fortnight we discuss the government's cunning use of flags to distract us from repeated failures of the pandemic and Johnson's cash-for-you-know-what scandal.
We also cast our eyes to the summer's elections across Scotland, Wales, and England. We start with Hartlepool - the by-election whose candidates include 3 parachuted in and 3 previous Labour MPs. Could a loss here be the death of Starmer before he's really begun?
