BBC Two - Daily Politics, 12/05/2010

An extended edition shedding light on the new government, with Andrew Neil and Jo Coburn.

Andrew Neil and Jo Coburn present an extended edition with guests Charlie Whelan, LibDem Chris Huhne and chats with new MPs. Plus a report from Thirsk, which has no MP.

We are having another extended show to keep up with events at Westminster as David Cameron and Nick Clegg take over. 

We are still finalising our guest list for today, but we will be joined by the Liberal Democrat Chris Huhne, and a leading Conservative MP. 

And we will look at the Labour search for a new leader with Charlie Whelan who now works for the union Unite. 

Also coming along to give a view will be Trevor Kavanagh of the Sun, and Steve Richards of the Independent. 

Giles will be talking to some of the new MPs who are settling into the job, and we will be looking at the Thirk and Malton constituency in North Yorkshire, which won't have an MP for a few more weeks. 

Jo will have an update in her video newsletter recorded in our newsroom, and we will be keeping the website updated. 

Join us from 1130 on BBC2, or catch a repeat tonight on BBC Parliament - or any shows from the last seven days on BBC iPlayer.
