Summary

Comedian and writer David Baddiel is our special guest this week; he gives an eye-opening account of anti-Semitism and the unusual way it is not taken seriously by anti-racists.

It really is a must-listen.

In the first half of the podcast we discuss the economy and the Bank of England's optimistic assessment of the future.

Of course, we also talk about the fascinatingly hilarious insight into local politics, provided to us by the members of Handforth Parish Council.
