Former nurse Lucy Letby is serving a whole life sentence for the murder of 7 babies and the attempted murder of 7 others. But now there are calls, including one from former Tory Brexit minister David Davis, for her case to be re-examined. Are there valid reasons to question the evidence against her and could the case be reopened? Kevin Doyle is joined by legal journalist and commentator Joshua Rozenberg. Hosted on Acast.

Rishi Sunak's 'Windsor Framework' agreement with the EU has been promoted with great fanfare. Finally - or some senior Tory figureheads boast - Brexit has been done. But here's the thing: Sunak has unintentionally publicly declared that his Tory Brexit has been a disaster. And he's absolutely right.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-owen-jones-podcast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This is a national catastrophe we can no longer ignore. We've just had a whole load of new evidence about just how disastrous the Brexit deal negotiated by Boris Johnson really is. But there's a conspiracy of silence over it - from the Tories to Labour, in newspapers, the BBC. That has to change. So how do we talk about fixing this disaster without a new culture war?Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-owen-jones-podcast. Hosted on Acast.

Oh dear oh dear. Two reports have come out showing that Boris Johnson's Brexit deal has been disastrous for the economy, meaning slashed growth and tax revenues. But what do we do about it - given the gruesome culture war detonated by the EU referendum?Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-owen-jones-podcast. Hosted on Acast.

Wow. A former Tory Cabinet minister, Sir George Eustice, declared to the House of Commons that the trade deal with Australia was a "failure" and "not actually a very good deal" for the UK. But we were promised a post-Brexit buccaneering Britain: instead, the Tories have given us non-existent growth and declining living standards. Will we really let them get away with it?Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-owen-jones-podcast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

With Toni Giuliano. Scotland voted overwhelmingly against Brexit. All 32 local authorities voted to remain in the European Union and every poll since has shown this number only increases. Yet, we are having to ensure the fallout of a Tory Brexit with its empty Global Britain rhetoric. The UK's exit from the EU has made the case for independence and Westminster continues to make the case on a daily basis. In this week's Scotland's Choice, Drew sits down with SNP Policy Development Convenor, Toni Giuliano to discuss the current state of affairs and how as an independent nation, we can forge a different path – one that sees Scotland seeking accession to the EU. From discussing the benefits of joining the EU to potential routes available for accession, Drew and Toni cover an array of topics around Scotland's relationship with the EU. The two also discuss the arguments used against Scotland re-joining the EU and discuss the many benefits of Scotland having a voice in the EU. Opposition parties can often be heard saying, ‘why leave one union to join another'. Tune in to hear Toni's thoughts on why the two unions are not comparable and how Scotland can forge its path to becoming a member state of the European Union as an Independent Nation. Catch Toni over on Twitter. Listen to more Scotland's Choice here.

This week brought the welcome news that the first coronavirus vaccine has been approved for use in the UK. Has the announcement on the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine come at a useful time for Boris Johnson as his backbenchers show their dismay at lockdown tiers being imposed across the country?Another potential pitfall for Johnson is the enduring Brexit negotiations that are going down to the wire - but the situation is also a problem for opposition leader Keir Starmer, who will almost certainly split his party however he decides to vote on any deal.Joining Arj Singh and Paul Waugh, Labour MP Lucy Powell discusses a momentous week for the government and the country.Make sense of politics.

Boris Johnson’s ‘moonshot’ coronavirus ambition began to look divorced from the reality of worrying testing shortages as more areas were put into local lockdowns. The prime minister also had to contend with a Tory Brexit rebellion and more resignations from his government. Is Johnson losing control of the two biggest issues of our times? Tory MP Paul Howell joined Arj Singh, Paul Waugh and Rachel Wearmouth to make sense of the week in Westminster, and look ahead to the imminent Budget and what it could mean for left behind communities.  Make sense of politics.

With the UK finally set to leave the European Union on 31st January after Boris Johnson's Brexit deal was backed by MPs, what can we expect to see short and long-term?   In his second appearance on the podcast, ex-politician and founder of Downtown in Business, Frank Mckenna, gives his take on the recent general election outcome and importantly, what it means for both businesses and society.

Patrick Reed insists he will not allow fierce criticism of his actions in the Hero World Challenge to "derail" him in this week's Presidents Cup at Royal Melbourne. Video evidence clearly shows him improve his lie not once but twice!! He is sure to face a difficult week Down Under after Australian Cameron Smith, a member of Ernie Els’ International team, brutally criticised the former Masters champion over the excuse he made for improving his lie in the Bahamas. "If you make a mistake maybe once, you could maybe understand but to give a bit of a bulls--- response like the camera angle ... that's pretty up there (inexcusable)," Smith told the AAP at the Australian Open on Sunday. "I don't have any sympathy for anyone that cheats. I hope the crowd absolutely gives it to not only him, but everyone (on the American team) next week. I know Pat pretty good and he's always been nice to me, so I don't want to say anything bad about him. But anyone's cheating the rules, I'm not up for that.” Reed (29) was handed a two-stroke penalty for improving his lie and line of play in Friday's third round, ultimately finishing two shots behind winner Henrik Stenson in third. But while he's been the subject of ridicule from his peers and could face even more flak when he tees it up as a captain's pick this week, he's adamant he will not let it affect him, that may be so but he definitely is on my 'Naughty List' and will no longer get any support from me. In this the last week of Electioneering I look at the Tory Brexit position with a little help from the BBC who also seem a little confused! The biggest fear I have is a clear majority for the Tories as this gives Boris Johnson a Carte Blanch on pushing through anything he likes and that IMO is the road to disaster. A hung Parliament or a Labour Coalition at least allows for some checks and accountability. Manchester United dealt a crushing blow to Manchester City's title hopes with a stunning derby win that leaves the defending champions 14 points behind Premier League leaders Liverpool. Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial fired United into an early lead and although Nicolas Otamendi's late reply set up a thrilling finale, the visitors held on for arguably the most impressive victory of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's 12-month reign. Both United goals came in a breathless opening half-hour at Etihad Stadium, where they repeatedly carved open City's creaking back-line to devastating effect. Rashford opened the scoring from the spot after he was clumsily knocked over by Bernardo Silva, with the penalty awarded by video assistant referee Michael Oliver. The in-form England striker, who has now scored 13 goals in his past 14 games for club and country, hit the bar moments later but United did not have to wait long to extend their lead. United's next attack saw Daniel James find Anthony Martial on the right of the area, and he had space to turn and squeeze his shot inside Ederson's near post. The game was marred by allegations of racist abuse towards the United midfielder Fred in the second half, while there were also reports of objects being thrown at him from the stands.

Another week in Scottish politics, another Scottish Labour upheaval with the abrupt resignation of erstwhile leader Kezia Dugdale. Another week in British politics came with more revelations of Tory malice / incompetence, not least in the UK Government’s cack-handed and unlovely handling of the so-called Brexit “negotiations”. Another week in American politics and … no, no that’s enough nonsense without adding Trumpets (reddit!)… Our regular podcast has Derek Bateman summoned renowned Scottish author and playwright Peter Arnott and journalist and producer Maurice Smith to read the tea-leaves – before promptly accusing them of being a pair of softies when they revealed Kezia sympathies… there’s just no pleasing some people. Have a listen, anyway…

Having regaled you with a lang ane last week yir back on rations wi this half hour podcast . After discovering my shady past we focus on Nicola Sturgeon's " reset" speech on indyref2 on Tuesday. There's questions on just what might be  the "Al Capone"tipping  moment to get folk on board with voting Yes next time around; what the SNP's bold and radical policies might be and could they just stand back and let the hash of a Tory Brexit play out? We finish with startling revelations on our dubious eating habits!  

It's hard to run a weekly political podcast and ignore the fact that Scotland has two elections to undergo over the coming weeks. Scottish council elections are next Thursday (May 4), rapidly overshadowed by Theresa May's long-denied "snap election" of June 8. Scottish academic Dr Peter Lynch, who previously wrote a history of the SNP, visited the Newsnet studio to chew over the meaning of it all with regular host Derek Bateman. Should we mock Mrs May for all those times she said there would be no election before the fixed term date of 2020? Or should we admire her political instincts, striking when Labour is 20 points behind in the polls and UKIP seem to be imploding in England? Either way, her handling of Scotland has been poor, and nationalists have been enraged by the sayings and rings of her Scottish party leader, Ruth Davidson. "Who's going to vote Tory in Scotland in 2017?" asked Peter. "It's the people who are most vehement in their opposition to independence."
