99: THE NOTORIOUS T.I.G.? Labour and Tory breakaways – with special guest Cristo Foufas

By Podmasters

EMERGENCY RELEASE AS EVENTS GO CRAZY YET AGAIN. The dam finally breaks in the most dramatic week in Brexit since… January? Eight Labour MPs including Luciana Berger and Chuka Umunna quit Labour over anti-semitism and Corbyn’s intransigence over Brexit. Then three Tory women – Heidi Allen, Anna Soubry and Sarah Woollaston – resign from the party they now say is irrevocably dominated by the hard Right and its ERG extremists. What can the Independent Group achieve and what must they do to achieve it? Plus: Honda, Nissan and industry’s fear of the “B” word. Why you need to be at the Put It To The People March on Saturday 23 March. And what’s driving older people’s resentment of the young? TalkRadio presenter Cristo Foufas joins our regulars to thrash it all out.  This week’s REMAINIACS is presented by Naomi Smith with Ros Taylor and Ian Dunt. Audio production is by Alex Rees.
