Meet new UK PM Liz Truss

Also: Alexandra Smith on the downfall of Gladys

Well big news out of the UK overnight with the passing of our head of state, HRH Queen Elizabeth II. I was recording the episode last night when news broke that she was sick - I mention it at the top of the show and then proceeded as normal with my planned episode, which co-incidentally is about the other big news out of the UK this week: the appointment of their new Prime Minister Liz Truss. so yes, big week for UK politics!

Also this week I interview Sydney Morning Herald NSW State Politics Editor Alexandra Smith about her new book The Secret, all about the downfall of the NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian. Was she unlucky in love or did she turn a blind eye?

You can order The Secret here.
