Any Questions?Available for over a year
Ritula Shah presents political debate and discussion from Hungerford in Berkshire with a panel including the chair of the European Research Group Suella Fernandes Conservative MP; Bronwen Maddox from the Institute for Government, formerly Editor of Prospect magazine; political activist and writer Jack Monroe; and the Labour MP Chuka Umunna. Together they discussed frictionless trade post Brexit; whether it's right that Jeremy Corbyn demand total allegiance and obedience from his shadow cabinet; is the West at risk from a failure to defend traditional values as claimed by President Trump? and should it be the Government or victims who decide upon the chair of a public inquiry? And, with Pride in London, they debated LGBT rights in the UK; and whether we have a moral obligation to continue with austerity to safeguard our children's future? Producer: Lisa Jenkinson.
