Plaid Cymru, Labour policies, Conservatives, October 7th and Intercity 125

Sunday Supplement

Available for 29 days

This week Plaid Cymru party faithful met up in Llandudno and the Conservatives are making their way to Birmingham. Plaid's Westminster leader Liz Saville-Roberts and shadow Welsh Secretary Mims Davies join us from their respective conferences. Fresh from Labour conference, the FT's Lucy Fisher will look at all the policy announcements made by Prime Minister Andy Burnham this week. Three years on from the Hamas attacks that sparked a massive Israeli military offensive in Gaza, what is the situation now? Freelance middle east correspondent Jotam Confino joins us from Tel Aviv. And it's exactly 50 years since the first intercity 125 made its virgin journey from London to Cardiff. Emeritus Professor Stuart Cole was on the last journey of the famous train on the same track only last year. And in our series getting to know politicians better, we have Lord Mike German in the studio.
