    So refreshing to find honesty about politics and with humour on the net without it being a mime, shame more UA-camrs are interested in Marvel movie than these discussions but thank you for this and keep the great content.

      we can't differentiate between a Marvel Movie and Politics. Each side is playing their part and they are horrible, so horrible, you might vote for the side you never have just to save yourself. One side will take away your social security, but the other will take away your life. The people who fund their campaign and push horrible ideas on us and the more we question them, the more they wonder what planet we come from. New world order that so many politicians have taken about and then said nope, or Bill Gates having a group of people talking about what would happen if we had a virus, what would we do, he says never happened but is on the internet. The avalanche of people coming, along with many sent by plane to rob our homes sounds so refreshing. I was hopping some country would have some empathy and let us move there without charging us an arm and a leg to pay taxes to survive. that's not going to happen, but if we could we would fight back. They tied our hands and the hands of the police and the hands of everyone who could help us.

    Fun fact: like Johnson, Gove and Cummings, Iannucci went to Oxford. He's just the clown instead of the politician, like David Frost and Richard Curtis before him.

      Wouldn't it be nice, though, if we had a few more options between the "good" Oxbridge graduate and the "bad" Oxbridge graduate in our politico-media spheres?

      I found this a hard watch because she was there. I thought it would have been a better format to just let him talk for a half hour. She doesn't realise she's emblematic of the kind of political class (that cant take offence and is swept up into moral trends) that Iannucci criticises so often. Constant consensus doesn't make for very good discussion.
