I'm Sebastian Payne.

In this week's episode we'll be talking about coronavirus, the growth of the illness

across the UK, the government's response and where it's

going to be heading next. Plus we'll also be digging into the related collapse

of Flybee and what it says about the government's industrial policy and we'll be

looking at Pretty Patel's

falling out with Sir Philip Rotnam and what the Johnson's government's

attitude is going to be towards the civil service now and in the future.

I'm delighted to be joined by our chief political correspondent Laura Hughes,

deputy opinion Ed Miranda Green and special guest Jill Rutter from the Institute of Government

who is formerly a Senior Civil Servant.

Thank you all for joining.
