Rigorous analysis of news and current affairs, presented by Shaun Ley.

Egypt's tourism minister discusses the problems with repatriating Brits from Sharm el Sheikh, plus the latest in the programme's reports on a refugee family's journey to Europe.

There is more confusion at Sharm El Sheikh airport today. Thousands of British Tourists have arrived to fly home, to find that the flights they were expecting to board will not be taking off. Egypt's Minister for Tourism tells us that the reasons are purely logistical. Hisham Zaazou also told us his country respected the right of Britain to suspend flights because of security fears, but that there had not been enough communication about the decision.

We report from Northern Greece in our series of reports following one refugee family's journey from Jordan to Germany.

An MP issued with a Police Identification Notice tells us why a system designed to reduce harassment is now harassing the innocent.

And why Vauxhall's recall of two hundred and twenty thousand cars could be good for the company's reputation.
