The Price of Education and Harry’s Game
About this episode
The episode discusses the taxation of private schools by Labour and the public's interest in Prince Harry's potential return to the UK.
On this week’s episode, Peter would like to know why Labour are taxing some private schools out of business and Sarah is asking if should we even care that Prince Harry might be coming back to the UK? And the pair pore over our mailbag to chat about studying double smoking (and drinking cider), how e-bikes have no place even in hilly Lisbon, just how Conservative was Gordon Brown, and what ties Andy Bunrnham and Philip Larkin together.
