Wanted for war crimes: Benjamin Netanyahu

Listen on

Episode notes

The International Criminal court has issued a warrant for the arrest of Israel’s Prime Minister, a former defence minister, and separately two Hamas leaders - saying it’s dismissed Israel’s appeal. What will be the repercussions of this around the world? Will the courts finding's be rejected by the US? And how will the UK government respond if Benjamin Netanyahu sets foot in Britain?

Later, John 'Prezza' Prescott has died. Deputy Labour leader and master of the (centre) left hook after famously punching a protester. Plain speaking, funny, at times cantankerous. Was he a politician ahead of his time?
