U-Turns and Turncoats (with Stewart Lee)

JAN 22, 202630 MIN

Description

<p>With the backdrop of tariffs and territorial land grabs, Stewart and Armando look at the political language of U-turns and turncoats.</p><p>With politicians having to advocate for a position they used to be in direct opposition to, we ask if political language exists in a quantum state inside Robert Jenrick's head, or, failing that are we really expected to believe defectors like him have had a damascene conversion?</p><p>Stewart gives an update to an tired political joke, Armando finds a nifty Peace Prize related fix for the Greenland dispute, and they both give a run-down the shifty, shifting responses from Government officials on their numerous U-turns.</p><p>Got a strong message for Armando?

A BBC Studios production for Radio 4.</p>
