In this punchy and provocative episode of Mark and Pete, we dive headfirst into the swirling chaos of British politics, public utilities, and corporate excess. First up: Attorney General Richard Hermer finds himself in hot water after comparing the Reform Party and Tory ECHR policies to Nazi ideology. Was it a bold moral stand—or a clumsy rhetorical nosedive? Next, we wade through the murky waters of Thames Water’s £122.7 million fine, the biggest in UK history, as they continue to leak both sewage and credibility while drowning in £20 billion of debt. Is failure now the British benchmark for business? Finally, we take off (in budget class) to dissect Ryanair boss Michael O’Leary’s eye-watering €100 million bonus. In a time of rising fares and falling trust, should we celebrate his capitalist cunning or question the altitude of his ethics?
