Talking Brexit, green tech and taxes with Tony Danker of the CBI

Tony Danker joins Christopher Hope in the Red Lion for a lookahead to this week's Spring Statement. The Director General of the CBI warns that taxes or borrowing may have to rise again unless ministers use Brexit to turbocharge growth, and insists he wasn't offended by last year's infamous "Peppa Pig" speech by the PM.

Also on the podcast, Ipsos' Kelly Beaver with some exclusive polling for Chopper's Politics on tax, including whether Chancellor Rishi Sunak needs to worry about his popularity.

Plus, former Cabinet minister Andrew Mitchell on his objections to offshore processing of asylum seekers, and how he's by far the only Conservative with that view.
