Pierce vs Maguire

What would Doug Ross have done ? The doctor won't see you now - at least for five days. Is the controversial strike in the middle of a flu crisis a steth (oscope) too far and is it time for these front line juniors to fall into line with the Army and Police who are banned from walking out? Also this week, the lessons the UK can learn from the Bondi atrocity, why are folk losing jobs month after month, and could Trump's defamation action against the BBC bankrupt the home of Strictly and the Traitors?

What do Labour MPs hear on the doorsteps? Kevin's contacts tell him the Prime Minister is a dead man walking. Also this week, Trump speaks the hard 'truth' to Britain and Europe on migrants, Harry should pay for his own bodyguards as we care more for council estates rather than royal estates and smaller portions for little ladies - and small men, the patronising new plan from the health czar. A great Christmas listen especially if you're trudging around the stores. This a special hungover edition, at least for one of us, can you guess who?

How much should the Royals pay in rent for their stately homes? Wouldn't have been an issue until Mr Mountbatten Windsor cosied up to paedophile Epstein and now a committee of MPs wants to scrutinise all royals paying peppercorns for Palaces. Also in this episode, they think its OBR, it is now - how long can Rachel survive.? The anti semitic rhetoric of Corbyn and Sultanas new left wing Your Party, unless You're Jewish, we presume. And Andrew gets a lesson on Elf on the Shelf, that's Pierce not Windsor!

At last. Now we know what really was in Chancellor Reeves Budget and there was no rabbit out of a hat. Did she get away with it ? Did she buy time for her and her boss Sir Keir with the abolition of the two child benefits cap? Or will the middle class paying more tax while benefits rise be the thorn in the side of this Labour government. Andrew has christened her 'Rachel Thieves' whilst Kevin is delighted with more than half a million children taken out of poverty.It's a rollicking half hour unlike any other political podcast.

Tens of thousands more Epstein files are due to be released imminently now that Donald Trump has bowed to pressure and agreed to publish documents that will have the rich and famous quaking in their boots. In this episode ,Kevin Maguire of the Daily Mirror and Andrew Pierce from the Mail, explore what this could mean for disgraced Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, more shame perhaps and even extradition and jail if there's smoking gun evidence. He denies any wrongdoing. Also, Trump insults women, Labour spins right on small boats, Farage is accused of schoolboy stupidity with a sinister tone and should Angela eat anus in the jungle?
