Summary

• Get 20% off a year’s Patreon support in our Cyber Monday sale. Why not ask for it for Christmas? • Last few tickets for our Christmas Live Show on Tue 10 Dec at the Comedy Store London. 🎵 Shoulda left my phone at home/Cos this is a disaster. 🎵 What does the surprise resignation of Louise Haigh tell us about propriety and forgiveness in the new government? Is it one strike and you’re out? Plus as Labour and the countryside clash we welcome Guy Shrubsole, author of the brilliant book The Lie Of The Land: Who Really Cares For The Countryside?, to delve into the background of Starmer’s rural troubles… and bust the myth of “custodians of the land.”  • Buy The Lie Of The Land through our affiliate bookshop and you’ll help fund OGWN by earning us a small commission for every sale. Bookshop.org’s fees help support independent bookshops too. Support us on Patreon to get early access to all our live tickets plus mugs, t-shirts and more.  Presented by Andrew Harrison with Zöe Grünewald and Rafael Behr. Audio production by Robin Leeburn.
