You know, people out there view this in a rather different way than we do in here.

The damage Tessa Jowell has done to herself and to the government is quite incredible -- and I think she ought to reconsider her position.

If you're watching in broadband, here's how to find your favourite parts of the latest show.

1201 We're joined for the whole show by a man who knows a thing or two about intensive media interest: the former Labour minister, Keith Vaz.

1204 If Tessa Jowell is cleared of breaking the ministerial code, will this be a temporary reprieve for the Culture Secretary? We examine the can of worms currently engulfing her and her husband.

1207 Jenny asks the former Labour Minister Peter Kilfoyle whether Ms Jowell should remain in the cabinet.

1209 Andrew and Keith are joined by Labour MP and former Number 10 advisor Pat McFadden. Keith Vaz says of Tessa Jowell: "I have known Tessa for many years - all the time I have been in parliament. She's a superb minister and a great human being, and I believe what she has said. And I can only say what's been in the newspapers about that particular case, I'm sure she's looking forward to Gus O'Donnell's report when it comes out."

1215 In Northern Ireland, there's a new set of education reforms on the table. With the local assembly suspended, plans are being pushed through Westminster to scrap the 11+, effectively abolishing the province's grammar schools. We talk to headmaster Paul Hewitt on his fears for Northern Ireland's education system.

1219 Our Newsbelt covers the other stories making the news in Westminster this lunchtime.

1220 While the Lib Dem leadership votes are counted, we're joined by our political correspondent Reeta Chakrabati for the latest.

1222 Former director of communications for the Lib Dems - and one-time speechwriter for Charles Kennedy - David Walter joins the discussion.

1225 Your questions and emails for Keith Vaz.
