I particularly liked your question " Do you really think people are stupid?"
To Nicky's credit as a professional politician she stood up to the grilling quite well, albeit with expressing rather hurried speech patterns but then the pressure was really on her.
I hope others on here heard this outstanding piece of radio.”
I rarely catch Drive but I made a point of listening today because I wanted to hear Iain v Osborne. Sadly it wasn't to be but, like you, I enjoyed his encounter with Nicky Morgan. Excellent radio, which is frequently better than the similar stuff we getting on TV because there are no visual distractions,
