​Grooming G4S, selling wars & govt's gambling addiction (E16)

Privatisation seems to be the top priority for government these days, but what's with their love for Olympic security company G4S? Afshin Rattansi speaks to War on Want Campaigns & Policy Director Jeff Powell about why the government is still offering them contracts even while they are investigated for fraud. Plus, how an MoD think tank is encouraging the use of proxies in foreign wars to better package them for the British public. Former commander in Helmand Stuart Tootal joins to give his thoughts. And looking to make a quick buck? MPs say you should gamble everything you have on slot machines.
