Talking Pollcocks S3 EP3 - Lets Talk About Kemi
Kemi Badenoch.... The new leader of the Conservative party was up at the dispatch box for her second PMQ's. It wasn't the glowing performance that I am sure she was hoping for. However, it also wasn't a stellar performance from Sir Keir, so that may provide her some comfort! What else is happening in Parliament this week? Well there is the big Assisted Dying bill being brought to the house. While this is quite a somber topic, it is incredibly important in the national conversation and it is right that as a country, we are finally talking about it! And finally, there is always President-Elect Trump to provide some good (and funny) decisions as he is preparing to take office in January! Don't forget, you can get in touch with us by emailing talkingpollocks@criffnsean.com!!
