Boris Johnson should sack ministers who don't have green cars. So says one of our guests on this week's podcast, James Frayne, from policy research agency Public First. He joins Christopher Hope to talk about why he thinks ministers need to put their money where their mouth is when it comes to green policies, and why Westminster needs to accept that the car is here to stay.

Also on the show: Conservative MP Owen Paterson on why the Taliban takeover is the UK's biggest source of shame since Suez and the US' since Saigon, and why he's more concerned than ever for veterans' mental health. Plus Tim Pitt, policy adviser to two former Tory Chancellors, on the age-old battle between Numbers 10 and 11, and why he thinks Rishi Sunak does not need to raise vast amounts in new taxes this Autumn after all.
