Piddington referendum and tour guides

Jeremy discusses the Piddington referendum on leaving the UK, artificial intelligence, pre-emptive double mastectomies and the role of volunteer guides in historic properties.

Jeremy discusses the village in Oxfordshire that has voted in a symbolic referendum to leave the UK in protest at a plan to house migrants at a nearby military base, whether artificial intelligence will wipe us out, pre-emptive double mastectomies for women with a high risk of developing breast cancer, and the role of volunteer guides in historic properties. Does your heart sing or sink when they spot you coming round?
