Politicians “don’t relate to voters’ needs” – David Blunkett & UK Gitmo compliance [E53]

Afshin Rattansi goes underground on voter apathy with former Home Secretary David Blunkett. He says politicians need to do more to engage with the people, while Afshin questions whether it was the Labour Party’s actions in the past that caused the lack of trust. A former US Army major tells us the UK is allowing abuse to go on in the notorious Guantanamo Bay detention camp – and not doing enough to get its last remaining citizen, Shaker Aamer, out. Plus, it seems the UK taxpayer has been unknowingly funding EU spy drones. We take a look at what the mainstream media missed at PMQs this week. And why the Tories are busy gagging their own party.
