12 Jul EP 97 – Welcome to the Clacton Circus
Round Up
EP 97 – WELCOME TO CLACTON | By-Election Circus. Ann Widdecombe Murdered. Burnham Bluster.
No Holds Barred Pod, is Sal Dodgson and Don McGowan. Politics unpacked every week. News, politics and opinion. Serious and hilarious in equal measure.
As we recorded, news broke of Ann Widdecombe's murder and as we ended the culprit had been arrested. Tragic and very, very odd.
We talked about Farage's resignation and the ensuing circus that has become the Clacton-on-Sea by-election circus. Burnham is saying yes to EVERYONE and Trump has started the war again because he's bored with the World Cup.
