Carolyn Quinn and her panel of politicians preview the week ahead at Westminster.

Carolyn Quinn discusses the political week ahead with the former cabinet minister Stephen Crabb, Labour frontbencher Jack Dromey and senior SNP MP Kirsty Blackman.

Carolyn Quinn is joined by the former Work and Pensions Secretary, Stephen Crabb; the shadow business minister, Jack Dromey; and the SNP's depute leader at Westminster, Kirsty Blackman. They discuss the political week ahead, with Jim Waterson from Buzzfeed. Reporter Mark Lobel investigates progress on plans for the restoration and renewal of the Palace of Westminster. And the programme includes an interview with the former Labour MP Chris Mullin, about his 1982 novel 'A Very British Coup' - which speculates on the fate of a fictional left-wing Labour prime minister.
