President Obama has sold more arms to Saudi Arabia than any other president in US history. But some lawmakers are growing wary of the weapons shipments--particularly in light of alleged war crimes being carried out by the Saudi military in Yemen. Also, Charlotte is just the latest city on edge following the shooting death of another black man at the hands of police. But we take a look at a new effort launched this week to keep the police in check by requiring the community’s approval before certain surveillance technologies are deployed. We speak to the ACLU’s Chad Marlow on the initiative. And finally, it’s Friday, which means someone is going in our damn disgusting garbage candidates. We got seven nominees for you. Find out who gets punished for delivering the worst take of the week.

Whenever the pendulum swings in politics it knocks the most vulnerable among us square on their behinds. It seems that every time we make advances towards equality we take at least 12 steps backwards during an off cycle or midterm election. WHY? Why is voter turnout so low during this time? Was a win for conservatives in Houston regarding LGBT inequality really a mandate? Has stagnation in politics become our new normal? With Guest Christina Gorczynski, is the principal consultant and CEO of First Person LLC, a Houston-based strategic advisory firm specializing in smart leadership for socially responsible organizations.

Another week, another GOP debate tonight in Colorado - and the Republicans have a new front-runner: Dr. Ben Carson, whose mild-mannered demeanor distracts listeners from all the whack-a-doo theories and policy positions he seems to believe in. Or maybe that's what they like about him. At any rate, pundits are predicting that this debate could make or break Jeb Bush, who still leads the field with PAC money but is apparently struggling to pay his campaign staff. Pass the popcorn. In the meantime on the Democratic side, Hillary Clinton is still enjoying a very excellent October, Bernie Sanders is still in the game, and Martin O'Malley is hoping to reap the benefits of Jim Webb and Lincoln Chaffee dropping out of the race. In other news: John Boehner is getting out of Dodge while Paul Ryan is poised to become the next Speaker of the House. We predict very little changes there, except the so-called Freedom Caucus will likely make getting things done even tougher. MOMocrats Karoli and Donna Schwartz Mills discuss politics from a progressive point of view.

Conny is quite passionate about the subject as some members of her family are affected by it and she takes us through with a fountain of knowledge and advice. We quickly visit past guest Wyatt Scott for an update on his campaign We have another Reformation Report from our Chilliwack friend We find out that many Tory candidates in the 2015 election are against women's reproductive rights in Things That Make You Go Hmmm And it's Nancy's birthday!

This Week: You can ask Stephen Harper anything you want... but only if you pony up the cash. Then, stealing is ok Wisconsin... according to some. Plus, gender wage gap update, Women in these professions actually out-earn their male counterparts.

This Week: The Ontario government is bringing in a retirement savings plan… are government pension plans really the best idea? Then, a San Diego Woman have been fined for running a business out of her home… what happened to private property rights? Plus, I did something on the weekend that I'm not proud of… I'll give you my confession coming up.

A keen and academic assessment of the recent general election by one of Britain's top political historians: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/the-general-election-2015The 2015 election will be the first one since 1935 at which a coalition government will be defending its record. It will be a multi-party election in which the competition will be between not only the three major parties, but also the nationalists and UKIP. A hung parliament and a further coalition are both distinct possibilities. This lecture, to be delivered just five days after the likely date of the election, will seek to make sense of the outcome.The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/the-general-election-2015Gresham College has been giving free public lectures since 1597. This tradition continues today with all of our five or so public lectures a week being made available for free download from our website. There are currently over 1,800 lectures free to access or download from the website.Website: http://www.gresham.ac.ukTwitter: http://twitter.com/GreshamCollegeFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/greshamcollege

A short encouragement from Sarah Haywood to pray and vote in the upcoming General Election 2015.

The main parties have now launched their election manifestos. Depending on the outcome of the election, these pledges and any legislation which follows may affect the rights of those already living in the UK and those who wish to come to the UK in the future. Along with British citizens, many migrants seek clarity on where the parties stand on immigration. The importance of immigration to British Businesses should not be overlooked.  An apolitical look at each party's main points on immigration by the Morton Fraser immigration team.
