Thousands of protesters have taken to the streets of Turkey, following the arrest of Ekrem Imamoglu – the main rival of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.  Opposition leader Mr Imamoglu is a popular politician and is a 2028 presidential nominee – but last Wednesday he was detained and later formally arrested for corruption, a move he believes is politically motivated.   On Sky News Daily, Liz Bates talks to Sky's special correspondent Alex Crawford who has been reporting from Istanbul and meeting with protesters. She also speaks to Hannah Lucinda Smith, the author of Erdogan Rising: The Battle For The Soul Of Turkey, about who Ekrem Imamoglu is and what his arrest tells us about the direction President Erdogan is taking the country.   Help us understand more about our listeners by taking our survey!  This form should only take a few minutes to complete, and Sky anonymises the responses as much as possible Podcast producer: Rosie GillottEditor: Paul Stanworth

A bonus episode with Hannah Lucinda Smith, Christopher de Bellaigue and Misha Glenny

Turkey hosts the largest population of refugees and asylum seekers in the world. These include around 3.6 million Syrians, who fled there during the war in their country. Now many of those Syrian refugees feel forgotten, and again unsafe, and tensions with locals are higher than ever. Seven years ago, the EU handed Turkey 6 billion euros in a deal to stop Syrians heading to Europe. Since then, many Turks say their welcome has worn thin. And now, the Turkish government is deporting Syrians it says are in Turkey illegally, back to the warzone. Karam was 19 when the President of Syria, Bashar al-Assad, had security forces fire on peaceful protestors and arrest hundreds of citizens. Karam was one of those arrested, and after being released he eventually paid a people smuggler to take him to Turkey. He believes that he'll be arrested and tortured if he returnsto Syria. But he's also afraid to stay in Turkey, saying that local Police ask for his papers around five times a day. Hannah Lucinda Smith is in Esenyurt, a predominantly Syrian district around an hour's drive from the centre of Istanbul, speaking to both Syrians and Turks about why tensions have escalated. She's asking what's next for Syrians living there, and whether or not it will ever be safe enough for them to return home. A Depictar production for the BBC World Service.

My guest for this conversation is Times journalist and author of Erdoğan Rising, Hannah Lucinda Smith (@hannahluci on Twitter).
