Brexit

The programme asks what listeners make of the prime minister's comments this week as MPs accuse her of painting them as enemies of the people.

Some MP’s are in fear for their lives. Many have reported threats of violence and rape. Anna Soubry can’t go home this weekend because of threats made against her.

What does it say about us as a country? Should there be harsher penalties in law? Is this just something we have to put up with if we are to safeguard free speech - a by product of passionate politics?

What did you make of the PM’s comments this week as MPs accuse her of painting them as enemies of the people ….

Is it parliament’s fault that brexit is this bad tempered? What do you make of the whole mess?
