NonCensored is a weekly round up of Harriet Langley-Swindon QC's very popular, very real daily radio show, completely non-Censored (but with all of the rubbish edited out). This week Harriet and Producer Martin have one of the first broadcast interviews with Prime Minister Liz Truss, who explains why she's not just giving out jobs to her friends and is absolutely clear about delivery. They're also joined by Diversity Correspondent Eshaan Akbar, whose Hot & Spicy Takeaway of the Week is that the enforced diversity in the cabinet is keeping out talented backbenchers like Christopher Chope, who has been an MP for thirty-five years without ever becoming a Cabinet minister - so if he's NOT being discriminated against, he must be an absolute idiot! There's also an extended interview with legal expert David Allen Green about the human rights act, why Suella Braverman is the best lawyer in the country, and how we can bring back hanging. A few tickets to our live show at the London Podcast Festival are still available - that's on Saturday 10th September, at 2pm, at King's Place.

"Each of the parties involved had an ultimate weapon.""The Home Office had three motivations - delay, forewarn, retract.""The report could reveal that this goes far into the Met, and very far into Fleet Street and private industry.""This is the Home Secretary trying to bully an independent panel.""This is just government intolerance of anyone outside of the central government having power.""Conspiracies are used to cover cock-ups…the Home Office just did not like the idea of learning about this at the same time as everyone else."Presented by Alex Andreou.

You can listen to this week's show right here.This week's show is about the Tory plan to abolish the Human Rights Act and to put England and Wales (though not Scotland or NI, of course) outside of the direct constraints of International Human Rights law.It's a good job that Ben is still barely croaking otherwise this would no doubt have been an angry rant full of vitriol about our Home Secretary and Lord Chancellor.  Surely Kirstin will be far more calm about it...Of course, you might want to balance the Tory slandering of the Act and the ECHR against a few examples of what the law has meant for us.For a great collection of what to read about this to know more on both sides of the argument, please see the excellent compendium put together by David Allen Green.Not only that but it has been a little while since we heard what's going on in the world of immigration law.  There has been a report about the Home Office and its ability to do its job.  Spoilers, government subcontractors are not exactly thrilling us with their efficiency.  Jonathan Holt explains all.  Visit Bail For Immigration Detainees and read all about it.Next week should be a little more chatty assuming none of contract any other horrible illnesses.  PLEASE RATE/REVIEW US: wherever you subscribe, please take two seconds as we start this series, to give us some stars and a few kind words.  We'd be e'er so obliged.  It helps us get up the search rankings, ya see.  If you use iTunes, please click here and it'll take just seconds!
