​Cash for Access, ‘media craziness’ over Ukraine, & Syriza sell-outs? (E179)

Afshin Rattansi goes underground on the cash-for-access scandal. Chris Huhne says the actions of Sir Malcolm Rifkind, who was at the time chair of the Intelligence and Security meeting, were ‘embarassing rather than dangerous’ and warns that if we don’t allow MPs to have second jobs or raise their salary, people form highly paid jobs won’t enter Parliament. Craig Murray, former UK ambassador, warns of ‘media craziness’ over the Ukraine crisis, and describes the idea of Putin attacking as ‘obvious nonsense.’ Our producer Sebastian Pacher looks at the swilling, smoking campaign trail of UKIP. And forget New Labour – has Yanis Varoufakis ALREADY created New Syriza?
