What can European countries do about Belarusian tyrant Alexander Lukashenko’s bizarre “air piracy” move to divert a RyanAir flight and make a dissident disappear? What does Dominic Cummings have in store for his Westminster appearance on Wednesday? And the BBC haters scent blood. NAOMI SMITH sets up another glorious week in politics. 

• “Lots of popcorn shall be consumed this week.”

• “Why on earth are we having to rely on Cummings for COVID scrutiny? Where are the opposition parties?” 

• “The BBC row is manna from heaven for Tories who want to stoke the culture wars.” 

Presented and produced by Andrew Harrison. Assistant producers Jelena Sofronijevic and Jacob Archbold. Music by Kenny Dickinson. Audio production by Alex Rees. THE BUNKER is a Podmasters Production
