THE SHOWDOWN
Last night: Keir Starmer held a press conference CONDEMNING the Conservative response to the pandemic. After that - 42 Tories rebelled against Boris in a vote. And today: Johnson will face Starmer at the despatch box. Think: the modern day Western. This is a catch-up version of James O'Brien's live, daily show on LBC Radio.

WHATS THE PLAN?
Leaks. Terrible in your house, terrible during a pandemic. Not terrible in soup. Listen: the Government have leaked a new lockdown procedure to the newspapers so we're covering it - and we'll be talking to the Mayors and the people in search of some *clarity and leadership*.

SHOW ME THE SCIENCE
A lot of chatter about Sweden, but not a lot about the science behind it - so let's natter about that. We'll also be talking about a freeze on the housing market and Greece, who have banned a far right party. Also PMQs with Theo Usherwood.

Cover your nose!
Alright look we're talking about masks again - but it's only because *some* of you can't quite grasp their necessity! I want to know: who should be enforcing masks. The shopkeeper? The police? The individual? Speaking of masks: Trump is out of hospital and not wearing his! And from masks to mortgages (a leap, but stay with me here), Boris is speaking at Conservative Conference today and he's got a big announcement for First Time Buyers.

TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES
This morning's show had a taste of the tories with an opening glitch. I've left it in, because you all seem to enjoy chaos. Anyway: today's episode is about Excel. Now: I know what you're thinking - how could you *possibly* make a spreadsheet programme interesting? WELL - tune in and hear radio gold.

TEST, ISOLATE, BOARD A TRAIN TO WESTMINSTER
For some time we've been questioning the efficacy of Government messaging, and thanks to the MP for Rutherglen and Hamilton West, our concerns are yet again front and centre. Alright let me break this down: Margaret Ferrier tested POSITIVE for Coronavirus, and then BOARDED a train back to her hometown from Westminster. Also the President of the United States has got it too. All of that, and much more. This is a catch-up version of James O'Brien's live, daily show on LBC Radio.
