Gordon Brown intervenes on Epstein scandal

PM

Available for 22 days

In a fresh intervention on the Epstein scandal, former Prime Minister Gordon Brown calls for a police inquiry into sex trafficking through UK airports. We get reaction from Labour MP for Rotherham Sarah Champion. Also on the programme, the former head of Britain's Armed Forces General Sir Nick Carter tells us why Europe needs to become a superpower, in the face of waning US support. Plus, the European robin that's been spotted in Canada - we'll speak to an ornithologist about how it could have got there.
