In this episode of the Weekend T, Michael Deacon and Tim Stanley take on Hallowe’en, the Budget and Andy Burnham’s first 100 days in office.

They talk about the panic-buying of baked beans and loo roll as the Government rolls out it’s ‘Be Ready’ campaign, Denbighshire’s baffling 12-bin recycling system, and why three quarters of European airline pilots have admitted to falling asleep in the cockpit. Plus, Michael asks what makes Alastair Campbell think he’s a national treasure, and the pair debate whether money is now more important than romance for young daters.
