The Trawl Drop-In: Farage's Tumbleweed Conference. Empty Chairs & Sweaty Palms 😂
From The Trawl · 21:18
Show by Jemma Forte & Marina Purkiss
Nigel Farage has spent years telling us that the British people are behind him. So imagine his surprise when he turns up to unveil Reform's big economic rescue plan and discovers that some are indeed sitting behind him, only no one's sitting in front of him.Jemma and Marina revel in Farage addressing rows of empty chairs, blaming his staff for the distinctly underwhelming turnout and watching Robert Jenrick clap enthusiastically in what looks increasingly like a very awkward job interview.Then there's the spectacularly flat attempt at humour and Reform's exciting new plan to bring back imperial measurements. Because apparently what Britain really needs is more inches.Reform's much-trumpeted momentum is beginning to look a little less unstoppable.A glorious feast of schadenfreude. And the Trawl ladies aren't even pretending to be impartial about it.For the Farage speech… view it here https://x.com/mittensoff/status/2114763729116250453?a=DQqj8UrpzhJPHI9sSOM&s=46Join The Trawl's Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61590931382660Thank you for sharing and please do follow us @MarinaPurkiss @jemmaforte @TheTrawlPodcastPatreonhttps://patreon.com/TheTrawlPodcastYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/@TheTrawlTwitterhttps://twitter.com/TheTrawlPodcastIf you’ve even mildly enjoyed The Trawl, you’ll love the unfiltered, no-holds-barred extras from Jemma & Marina over on Patreon, including:• Exclusive episodes of The Trawl Goss – where Jemma and Marina spill backstage gossip, dive into their personal lives, and often forget the mic is on• Early access to The Trawl Meets…• Glorious ad-free episodesPlus, there’s a bell-free community of over 3,300 legends sparking brilliant chat.And it’s your way to support the pod which the ladies pour their hearts, souls (and occasional anxiety) into.
