Podcasters reel from PM’s punch

PITY the podcasters, who were named as part of an enemy “anti-growth coalition” by PM Liz Truss in her Tory conference spech yesterday. Rory Stewart, left, the ex-MP and now broadcaster, fretted that “a lot of that speech is having a go at people like me who make podcasts”. Jon Sopel, host of The News Agents, added: “My self-worth has taken a real bash... I’m from north London, I tweet and I make podcasts.” Expect some new episodes.
