Analysis of current affairs reports, presented by Shaun Ley.

Business secretary Vince Cable offers to explain the BSkyB bid at the Leveson Inquiry. And there are growing tensions with the world's newest country South Sudan.

The Business Secretary, Vince Cable, tells us he dealt with News Corporation's bid to take over BSkyB "fairly and properly" -- and he would explain his conduct at the Leveson Inquiry into press standards. 
We also hear from Sir Christopher Kelly, the chairman of the Committee on Standards in Public Life, who says that the issues that have emerged in the last week should be investigated. 
And we have a report on the growing tensions between the world's newest country South Sudan and its neighbour, Sudan.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
