Show Notes

Sir Ed Davey has been named the new leader of the Liberal Democrats. Our guest presenter Jane Garvey asks his former adviser Polly Mackenzie whether he can turn the party's fortunes around. And, will the Bank Holiday weekend bring more illegal raves to towns and cities? We hear from the West Midlands’ Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner on whether the new £10,000 fines for organisers in England go far enough. Plus, Maitlis on Melania - our Americast colleague drops in to discuss the Republican National Convention.
