Isabel Hardman of the Spectator explores the art of select committee interrogation with an expert practitioner, the Labour MP Margaret Hodge, and a leading barrister, John Cooper QC. She also discusses the troubled question of how to define Englishness with MPs Jamie Reed, Douglas Carswell and Tommy Sheppard. And is parliament still plagued by a culture of boozing to excess? The sketchwriter Quentin Letts and Tory MP Dr Dan Poulter discuss.
