Critics of Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega have described today's election as a 'farce', following the arrest of seven leading opposition candidates under a treason law. Many more opponents have been forced into exile, and foreign journalists have been barred from entering the country. We hear from human rights campaigner Bianca Jagger and ask analyst Dr Paul J.

Also in the programme: the corruption allegations surrounding Britain's governing Conservative Party, and the discovery of an ancient carving associated with Henry XIII's beheaded queen, Anne Boleyn.
