#PodcastOfIdeas: monarchy, Brexit, German free speech under attack

Claire Fox, David Bowden and Rob Lyons discuss the week's news

In this week’s edition of the Podcast of Ideas the team discuss whether, on the Queen’s 90th birthday, the monarchy has any place today. There’s analysis of the latest in the Brexit referendum, what’s behind the prosecution of a German comedian for composing an insulting poem about Turkish President Erdoğan and why Dolmio has made the strange move of encouraging the public to eat less of its pasta sauce.
