Tree chopping, the budget, and a Fisherman’s Friend

32 minutes | Friday, 17 March 2023

Ollie Heptinstall and Rob Kershaw are joined by Liberal Democrat Julian Brazil and Conservative Philip Skinner to discuss the dramatic felling of over 100 trees in Plymouth this week – a move dubbed a “chainsaw massacre.”

They also round-up Jeremy Hunt’s budget and its ramifications for Devon, and consider whether a plan to close Teignmouth Hospital is the right one after opposition from local campaigners and councillors.

To round off the show, we speak to one of the stars of Fisherman’s Friends the Musical ahead of its return to Devon next month.
