The War on Drugs Has Failed

Season 1

As Scotland's shift not to prosecute people caught with possession of drugs sparks a new debate over the failed 'war on drugs', we're joined by pre-eminent expert Prof. David Nutt and journalist Mattha Musby to talk over how a new approach is desperately needed.


With Julian Assange facing extradition proceedings, the Belmarsh Tribunal has put the War on Terror on trial. We're joined by Croatian philosopher Srecko Horvat to explain what exactly is at stake.


As the anti-trans rights LGB Alliance has its first conference, we're joined by activist and YouTuber Katy Montgomerie to talk over the latest episode in Britain's anti-trans mania.

  • Jason Arday SMEARS Fall Apart

    09:35|
    Prof. Jason Arday was hounded to death after a media campaign so intense, so vitriolic, so unrelenting, that it went beyond what you’d expect if he was a Cabinet minister guilty of grave corruption or harm to others. But he wasn’t a Cabinet minister, he was a university professor the vast majority of people had never heard of, and he wasn’t guilty of corruption or harm to others.
