Sturgeon’s husband charged with embezzlement
Listen now
Description
Nicola Sturgeon's husband Peter Murrell has been charged in connection with the embezzlement of SNP funds. We'll assess what this dramatic development means for the party. Also on the programme: A BBC investigation has revealed children with mild blood conditions were enrolled in secret medical trials, without consent. We hear from one of the victims. A Conservative activist who complained about the suspended Tory MP Mark Menzies, allegedly calling her for money in the middle of the night, has told the BBC she is "appalled" by the party's response to the case. We have the latest. And we speak to the couple from Dorset who found a thousand 400-year-old coins when renovating their kitchen - that could now fetch them tens of thousands of pounds at auction.
