Show Notes
On this week’s episode, Sarah wonders if Labour’s plans to change the definition of Islamophobia is actually a threat to free speech? And, in light of Ian Huntley’s death, Peter would like to ask whether the death penalty might be better than unofficial execution by another criminal?
And the pair pore over our mailbag to mull over the case for paying MPs more (there’s no accord there), who’s to blame for The Irish Potato Famine? Who would call a military operation 'Epic fury'? And we return to the perennial subject of Peter’s borrowed leather biker jacket.
On our reading and watch list this week:
· Beyond Evil - Inside the Twisted Mind of Ian Huntley – Nathan Yates
· Motorcycle Jackets: A Century of Leather Design – Rin Tanaka
· Escape From New York – Dir: John Carpenter
