ARTHUR SNELL is here to start your week. • “People who gave the Government a chance will be a LOT more critical now we’re near the end of this.” • “A lot of long-term trends in Israel and Palestine have come together in this moment of combustion.” • “I’ll be holding back on going to the pub. It’s Monday. You’ve got to pace yourself…” Presented and produced by Andrew Harrison. Assistant producers Jelena Sofronijevic and Jacob Archbold. Music by Kenny Dickinson.
