For the past year, Westminster has been forced to introspect on numerous sexual assault, harassment and bullying allegations, which have brought down cabinet members and ushered in a new era of openness in Parliament. Or has it? This week, Joe and Marie are joined by the Financial Times\' Laura Hughes to discuss a stormy year and whether anything has really changed. They also touch upon the latest Brexit developments and the nation\'s favourite biscuit. As ever, we\'re also joined by Sarbjit Bakhshi for the latest in a tumultuous week for political betting markets.
