Out of Order! Chaos in parliament over ceasefire vote
Almost five months on from the beginning of the conflict, Labour appears to have shifted its position - calling for an “immediate humanitarian ceasefire” in Gaza. This culminated in a chaotic debate in parliament last night with SNP and Tory MPs walking out and this morning Lindsay Hoyle, speaker of the house, is facing calls to resign.
Anoosh Chakelian, Britain editor at the New Statesman, is joined by Rachel Cunliffe, associate political editor, and Freddie Hayward, political correspondent, to discuss how this breakdown in order reflects the current state of British politics.

Targeting Supreme Court Justices | Saturday Extra
A series of recent reports have alleged improprieties against Supreme Court Justices, particularly Clarence Thomas. Court critics allege a failure to disclose financial information and conflicts of interests, while defenders of the court say this is a biased effort to intimidate the conservative-majority court. We speak with Carrie Severino, president of the Judicial Crisis Network and author of “Justice on Trial: the Kavanaugh Confirmation and the Future of the Supreme Court,” about the string of allegations against the justices.
