4p Off Gherkins (and Tommy Robinson’s Bad Week)

Yes, the Budget was last week. Yes, Marina and Jemma are late. They’re always five steps behind at the Trawl, and proud of it, so put the kettle on, because there’s a lot of angry tea to get through... First up, a few bellends had a full-blown meltdown because a contestant on Celebrity Traitors had the audacity to pick a refugee charity. Then it’s onto Andy Burnham’s first Budget. He promised to end 40 years of neoliberalism and what Britain got, according to Kemi Badenoch, was 4p off gherkins. And for once she might have a point... Then to sad news, because the world lost Sir Patrick Stewart, and Marina and Jemma pay tribute - including when Trump's man Stephen Miller turned up to pay tribute and got told where to stuff it. And Tommeh, Tommeh, Tommeh... he wanted a jury of his peers and got one - and they found him guilty! Marina and Jemma have thoughts. They also have a song...
