"Pure cold rage": Will Nigel Farage regret his intervention over the murder of Henry Nowak?

Beth, Ruth and Harriet discuss whether Farage is pandering to the far right, or if he has a point about "two-tier policing" in Britain.

Nicola Sturgeon has said she was “completely cleared and exonerated” by police and that she had been “misled” and “deceived” by Murrell.

Beth has a punchy exclusive interview with Andy Burnham for this extra episode of Electoral Dysfunction.

She also asks how Burnham's ideas for the country are different to what we already have in government.
