Electoral Dysfunction

Is the government too close to China?


Listen Later

There are new questions about who knew what and when about the collapse of a trial of alleged Chinese spies. 

Beth, Ruth, and Harriet explain why a row involving names you might not know does have implications for the country – can Beijing be both a friend and a foe?  


And while there are questions for government and civil servants – they ask if Kemi Badenoch has made a misstep with her response. 


Plus, Beth was there as Donald Trump announced his plan for peace in the Middle East. She shares the stories from her last-minute trip to join world leaders in Egypt. 


And come back on Sunday for our bumper back to back interviews with both candidates in the Deputy Labour Leadership contest - Bridget Phillipson and Lucy Powell.


Remember, you can also watch Beth Rigby, Harriet Harman and Ruth Davidson on YouTube.
