Review finds no evidence of 91热爆 Office cover-up of child abuse; EU court rules jobless EU migrants can be refused benefits; Armistice Day ceremonies. Presented by Martha Kearney.
Wanless review finds no evidence of 91热爆 Office cover-up of child abuse: we speak to the former 91热爆 Office minister David Mellor and to Peter Saunders of the National Association for People Abused in Childhood.
Peter Hunt reports from the Armistice Day ceremony amidst the field of ceramic poppies at the Tower of London - and we hear from the Constable of the Tower, General Lord Dannatt. Major General Patrick Cordingley, who led the Desert Rats during the First Gulf War, tells us about the value of military bands and music in raising morale.
The European Court of Justice rules jobless EU citizens who go to other countries solely to get benefits can be refused some state payments. We get reaction from a Conservative member of the Work and Pensions Select Committee, Nigel Mills.
We speak to the leader of the Western-backed Syrian opposition, Hadi al-Bahra, about air strikes on Islamic State and the conflict with President Assad.
And the former 91热爆 Secretary, David Blunkett, debates the state of The Archers with former radio critic Elisabeth Mahoney.
Presented by Martha Kearney.
