In this episode Kartik and James go through a both non-eventful but also really eventful week. We start by going through Boris Johnson's package of evidence to suggest he did not lie to parliament over partygate. Then we discuss how his session with the privileges committee faired. We then take a look at the Windsor Framework vote and what the potential ramifications of certain Tories voting against the deal may be. We then dive into the Casey Report that found the Met Police to be institutionally racist, homophobic and sexist. Finally we look at the Government's ban of TikTok and Rishi Sunak's long overdue Tax returns.

Today we don't have a guest but we thought we would take some time to review some of the highs and lows of the season so far. Who our favourite guests were, who didn't answer our questions properly. We tell all. We then go on to talk about the news of the week including the Northern Ireland Protocol, Party Reshuffles, and the verdict on Shamima Begum and her appeal to regain citizenship. This episode we were a little tipsy which always helps :)
