Good news for football fans, bad news for the former health secretary. A week of highs and lows, or highs and highs - according to our co-pilots, Allison Pearson and Liam Halligan. They tell listeners why hypocrisy is too weak a word for the actions of Mr Hancock, while Allison puts a positive spin on the former Cabinet minister's rule-breaking and Liam gives us the inside line on new health secretary, Sajid Javid’s first moves.

Also on the podcast: SDP leader William Clouston boards the rocket of reason to tell listeners what sets his party apart in the much-anticipated by-election in Batley and Spen, and why he thinks the Labour Party no longer shares the values of its former voters.

Warning: This episode contains a terrible impression of the current PM.
