Jonny and Gus break their big discussion into two parts. Part two is coming later in the week.
Big Topic: Freedom day confirmed for July 19, meaning coronavirus restrictions are being (mostly) axed.
Other topics: Rishi Sunak wants to raise pension by 8% but faces opposition, Universal Credit £20-per-week uplift and furlough scheme to be scrapped, Covid-19 passport idea scrapped, and Russell Group universities want to keep remote learning.
Jonny Bentley and Adam Bragan are two British twentysomethings with an interest in all things politics. Pints & Politics aims to deliver an analysis of Britain's politics in a fun and digestible manner, as if you were having the discussion in a British pub! Breaking down current affairs, debating ethical issues and looking at America from afar. Debating. Educating. Entertaining (hopefully!).
