Show Notes

On this week’s episode, Peter is poring over the latest US national security strategy and being rather surprised by what he finds there. While Sarah is looking at why some people are calling for a resumption of the cancelled Lord Leveson Inquiry and therefore suggesting we blinker the free press. 

 

Plus, our duo on the Arkansas Razorbacks (again), the legacy of Roy Jenkins, what happened to independent newspapers in Kazakhstan and what it feels like to move your family across the Atlantic Ocean.


On our reading and watch list this week: 

·      Dangerous estate: The anatomy of newspapers – Francis Williams

·      Roy Jenkins: A Well-Rounded Life - John Campbell

·      The Godfather-in-law: the Real Documentation – Rakhat Aliyev
