Despite the fines issued yesterday, Keir Starmer's attacks at Prime Minister's Questions today failed to land on Boris Johnson. In part, this was down to the Prime Minister's 'remarkably pugnacious' attitude, according to James Forsyth on this episode. What's more, it seems that Conservative MPs are happy to allow partygate to take a back seat for now. James remarks that 'previously when Boris Johnson tried that kind of very aggressive tactic... you could see the discomfort on Tory benches. Today I thought that was much less visible.' This all comes after a team bonding dinner at the Crowne Plaza last night, where Boris Johnson gave a boisterous speech to backbench MPs, followed by after-dinner remarks from broadcaster Gyles Brandreth. Was this good timing? 'I do think that the jokes that Boris Johnson was telling is a sign of the current confidence in No 10 about his position', James says. Katy Balls and Isabel Hardman also discuss the Shrewsbury maternity scandal. On Sajid Javid's pledge that this won't happen again, Isabel Hardman says: 'I'm not sure that that is a promise he can really make, because we had that promise after Morecambe Bay, which again was exposed by a bereaved father'.

We dedicate this episode, along with all the others in the series, to the memory of our wonderful pal Barry: a joyous spirit, a supremely funny man, and one of the kindest, warmest, nicest, sweetest people you could ever have the privilege of spending time with. We will all miss him so much.Nestled in the warmth of the pub, Barry and Bob are joined by the delightful Gyles Brandreth for a pow-wow about how Barry went from being a turn to a writer, shaking hands with the hand that shook hands with Oscar Wilde, Bernard Manning's whitewashed wall, and everything in between!With many thanks to the Kites (Mark Allen, Jack Cryer and Matt Hodgson) for the tremendous theme music.You can hear more from the Kites here!Please rate, subscribe and tell your friends - it really makes a difference to how many people will manage to find us!
