Burnham, take your time on holiday… Have two months or even two years! | The Weekend T

Telegraph writers Michael Deacon and Tim Stanley take a look back at the biggest and most bonkers stories of the week.

Michael and Tim discuss Andy Burnham’s holiday just two weeks into the job, the resignation of a Cambridge professor, and the claim that nursery rhymes are sexist. They also debate MPs’ drinking culture, topless sunbathing in Spain, 20mph speed limits, and compassionate leave for bereaved pet owners.
