Season 9 Episode 8 of Cheshire Matters, your favourite 'digital' pub, featuring your absolutely amazing, brilliant, witty and very talented 'Ab Fab' landlord and host Jonathan Starkey, with regular panelists Trevor Nicholls (the Gazelle), Mark Hartley (Stats Man) and Steve Ingram (formerly Lycra Man, the Raven (C-Caw), the Patriot, Captain Crow, Captain Pugwash lookalike, potential Eurovision Song Contest entrant (but not from Russia) and lately Right Engle and Captain Circumference 360º) dropping in for a digital pint to discuss important national, regional and local issues, sometimes irreverent, sometimes humorous, sometimes serious but always entertaining.
Along with the usual round up (01:28) of current news stories which caught the Landlord's eye this week, this episode features a discussion regarding the push by Governments for Central Bank digital currencies (08:42), a discussion regarding the response Cllr. Trish Richards gave regarding emailed questions to Blacon Councillors regarding waste and rubble charges (19:25), closely followed by a report from Stats about Cheshire West and Chester council staff absent days (14000 to be precise) (29:32), a report from the Raven regarding Equalities Minister Kemi Badenoch, all followed by the usual shout outs and shout downs (40:15) with another policy from the 'Manicfesto' of the Monster Raving Loony Party (42:47) and quotes (44:16). Join us for a really humorous take on these subjects and more from the best digital pub with the best digital landlord in the UK (the guest panellists, apart from Stats and the Gazelle, are minor entities along for the ride).
