I currently live and work in Saudi Arabia and can positively state that, however much we like to moan about the state of things, there’s much we take for granted in Britain.
Really apricate Jacob taking the time to do these.
I could listen to Jacob for hours

This is a great idea!

Brilliant podcast Jacob
England has no parliament yet all the other UK nations do its a disgrace.
The UK Parliament is our Parliament. And we have EVEL.
Parliament is not politically sovereign the people are, section 38 EU withdrawal is unconstitutional and Treason.
Where did you get the idea that ‘the people’ are sovereign?
