Lord Walney - or John Woodcock to you and me - is the unelected Lord who was appointed by the Tories as a life peer after he endorsed Boris Johnson, and then an 'independent advisor' on political violence.
He's now trying to ban Palestine Action, and wants clampdowns on the right to protest, from the Palestinian movement to climate justice. But who is he? His links have been exposed - and it raises damning questions about our democracy.
I'm joined by Palestine Action's Huda Ammori. Make sure you check out their website: https://www.palestineaction.org/
