The Killing of Sir David Amess MP – Start Your Week with Ros Taylor

A second MP in five years is killed during the performance of constituency duties. Will the death of Sir David Amess change the temperature of political debate? Plus Dominic Raab’s plan to overrule independent courts, the brewing PCR test scandal, and coal-funded senator Joe Manchin destroys Joe Biden’s clean energy programme. Ros Taylor starts your week.

• “Police protection at surgeries is all very well, but marginalised people can be very afraid of the police – with good reason.”
• “People will always exploit tragedies like these for their own political ends.”
• “Kids are still paying the price for adults' failure on COVID.”
