The Commons backed the government after the EU agreed to extend Article 50, appeasing Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn’s caveats. Both party leaders are now out on the campaign trail pushing their message to the UK public.

The podcast also features a discussion about the recent MP resignations with a young Labour spokesman. And our entertainment correspondent Niamh Hutchings is back to give you all the arts and entertainment lowdown.
