The News Agents: Radio Gaga

The prime minister crashes the airwaves after crashing the economy. We take stock of how bad this morning's regional morning round was for Liz Truss, and what this says of her ability to communicate to the public on a local and national level.

All this comes just before the Conservative Party Conference - which this year is being avoided like the plague by many of the MPs who would normally go.
