Banks were bailed out with £750bn – are parties for arresting top bankers? What happened to Andrew Tyrie MP’s Treasury select committee decision to separate high street banks from casino banks?

Second hour
Cuts to legal aid since 2010: employment tribunal fees too expensive; number of cases plummet, lawyers finding it harder to make a living; everyone should be equal under the law; domestic violence. Should candidates declare Freemason membership like any business interest? Is freemasonry a religious cult? UKIP’s Bristol chairman Steve Wood is a Freemason and takes us through the extensive charity work of the group. Freemason’s lodges being used by organised crime to penetrate the government and criminal justice system. What about Masonic oaths and rituals of initiation? Do you get a hangman’s noose round your neck and a dagger point pressed to your bare chest when you join? Steve can’t tell us. Is there too much surveillance and is NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden a hero or a traitor? Secret services out of control; failure of Intelligence and Security Committee chair Sir Malcolm Rifkind to hold secret services to account; GCHQ, MI5, MI6 need to do job in secret; obtain a court order before putting someone under surveillance? Breaking the criminal law if they don’t. Will the crown prosecute these ‘crown services’? Illegal to spy on confidential communications between lawyers and their clients; illegal spying on MPs and journalists; Are CCTV cameras a waste of money? CCTV fails to cut crime; scrutiny; human rights issues. Is Bristol’s Metrobus ‘guided bus’ scheme a good idea? Problems other places such as Cambridge and Luton have had with a guided bus system; Tim Phillips from ‘Cast Iron’ campaign, about delays and engineering problems in Cambridge; Bristol transport generally. Child abuse: high society cover up; Leon Brittan, Greville Janner, Cyril Smith; if you do the crime, do the time; Child sex abuse: Watchdog to investigate Metropolitan police over ‘cover-up’ claims involving MPs and officers. Child sexual abuse used for political blackmail; Bloody Sunday inquiry dragging on for decades; Theresa May failing to get child sexual abuse inquiry going; very similar to the Dutroux scandal in Belgium and Franklin scandal in the US; gang grooming. Are candidates pro more council housing? Evictions doubled since 2010; bedroom tax; law changed in 2011 so builders have no social housing requirement
