BBC Radio 4 - Westminster Hour, 17/03/2019

Carolyn Quinn and guests discuss the prospects for the prime minister's Brexit deal.

Carolyn Quinn hosts political chat with Conservative MP Tim Loughton, Labour's Rachel Reeves and the Irish Ambassador to the UK, Adrian O'Neill, plus Jess Elgot from the Guardian.

Carolyn Quinn's guests as the Conservative MP Tim Loughton,  Labour's Rachel Reeves and - marking St Patrick's Day - the Irish Ambassador to the UK, Adrian O'Neill. They're joined by Jessica Elgot from the Guardian, to discuss the prospects for the Prime Minister's Brexit deal. The programme includes an interview with the Tory backbencher Chris Green, who shares his dilemma as he tries to decide whether to support the deal. And Keith Macdougall reports on the phenomenon of the "shouted question" - when reporters pursue a minister down the street, in their determination to get answers.

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