Episode description

The UK government is facing questions after a case against two men accused of spying for China collapsed just weeks before the trial was due to go ahead, when prosecutors unexpectedly dropped the charges. No one seems to fully understand this story, but luckily enough, James knows who to ask…

Also, James speaks with James Ball, the Political Editor of the New World, who tells the story of the man who controls the political right and is set to become the most influential non-politician in the country.

And, the late sex trafficking victim Virginia Giuffre alleged in her memoir that Prince Andrew was "entitled" and "believed having sex with me was his birthright". What should the Royal Family do about him?
