I don't know whether that's impressive or just sad.I'm gonna go with impressive, mainly because of the strength of the guest we have on here to talk about it all. We are lucky – lucky I say – to welcome our excellent friend of the pod, Andrew MacDougall. Andrew is the former Director of Communications for Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Now he lives in London, where he's a Director at Trafalgar Strategy, and writes about politics and current affairs in all the best journalistic places. But for the purposes of our conversation, we're going to spend a little time going back from here.What are the circumstances that led to a head of lettuce outlasting Liz Truss?Why have we had 5 Tory PMs in 6 years? What are the democratic implications of that?And how has the long tail of Brexit shaped all of this?Thank you for joining us on #TheHerleBurly podcast.

This means there were at least two simultaneous arrivals of the Asian giant hornet. Yikes. They are an invasive species that bully the native species to the point where they can't survive.
