How to save Brexit, with Boris’s negotiator David Frost
This week marks five years since Britain formally left the European Union, after four years and three Prime Ministers worth of post-referendum negotiations.But as the anniversary comes around, so too does new polling from YouGov, revealing that only 11% of Brits see Brexit as more of a success than a failure, and that 55% say the UK was wrong to vote to leave the EU in the first place.Faced with a Brexit that doesn't seem to be delivering for those who voted either for or against it, Camilla and Kamal ask David Frost - Chief Brexit Negotiator under Boris Johnson - how it can be rescued.Producer: Lilian FawcettSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyExecutive Producer: Louisa WellsSocial Media Producer: Rachel DuffyVideo Editor: Andy MackenzieStudio Operator: Meghan SearleEditor: Camilla TomineyOriginal music by Goss Studio Hosted on Acast.

Rachel Reeves set for a crash landing
The Chancellor has given the government’s backing to a third runway at Heathrow Airport, in yet another relaunch speech this morning.Speaking at a factory in Oxfordshire, Rachel Reeves reaffirmed Labour’s commitment to their growth strategy, announcing a raft of major new infrastructure projects alongside Heathrow including the redevelopment of Old Trafford, turning Oxford and Cambridge into “Europe’s Silicon Valley” and the much-delayed Lower Thames Crossing.But do projects that we might not see the fruition of for decades solve the dire economic situation which faces Rachel Reeves today?Camilla and Kamal discuss just that, and speak to Chief Executive of the Wine Society Steve Finlan, who has grim news from the frontline of small businesses.Producer: Lilian FawcettSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyExecutive Producer: Louisa WellsSocial Media Producer: Rachel DuffyVideo Editor: Andy MackenzieStudio Operator: Meghan SearleEditor: Camilla TomineyOriginal music by Goss Studio Hosted on Acast.

How the Home Office failed on extremism
A leaked Home Office review has recommended that the Government change its approach to extremism, focusing less on "ideologies of concern" and more on "behaviours", including extreme misogyny and environmental extremism.The review also pushes for the police to record more non-crime hate incidents in the vein of the thought policing that happened to our Telegraph colleague Allison Pearson.Kamal and Camilla ask what on earth is going on at the basket case that is the Home Office, and explain why civil servants are responsible.And it all comes on the same day that new figures suggest the UK population will hit 72.5 million by 2032 - all fuelled by net migration. So has the Home Office also failed when it comes to policing our borders?Producer: Lilian FawcettSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyExecutive Producer: Louisa WellsSocial Media Producer: Rachel DuffyVideo Editor: Andy MackenzieStudio Operator: Meghan SearleEditor: Camilla TomineyOriginal music by Goss Studio Hosted on Acast.

Are we forgetting the Holocaust?
