This was such a good episode and was so clear and thoughtful about the Supreme Court decision - in contrast to other outlets which have really struggled with accurate reporting on this important issue.

Why on earth are tags not applied in prison prior to release? Surely that would be more efficient, cheaper and above all, safer!

What has happened to governance in the US? How can the President seemingly impose these tariffs without any checks on his power?

I wish journalists would look at this subject properly and, if immigration is the no.1 issue for voters (not cost of living??) ask why that is so and who benefits from pushing that narrative?

This was so disappointing. Not only Jake Richards but the simplistic assumption that to appeal to the working class one needs to be anti-immigrant.

He should be asked what those misguided approaches are. As usual he makes a statement and it is reported as fact. Often those who talk about the issue with diversity policies are just trying to disguise their prejudice.

The BBC gleefully platforms him then fails to hold him to account or call out his hypocrisy. My instinct is always to switch off but I want to stay informed - and I am sick of Farage and his ilk dominating the conversation.

This is so disappointing. The city has such a long way to go on diversity and the last thing it should be doing is rolling back.

I listened to this and was disturbed that despite the criticism of Trump there seemed to be an acceptance that a focus on DEI lowered standards - particularly from Jon Sopel. I would like to see you address this with facts and reference to studies which show diverse teams make better decisions.
