Carole, Peter and Sergei are closing on the core of the Russian Westminster plot as they untangle the secrets around the parliamentary Russia Report. With Dominic Grieve, the former Conservative Attorney General and chairman of the Intelligence and Security Committee of Parliament, which produced the groundbreaking report, and two of the Committee’s key witnesses, Edward Lucas and Christopher Steele, they discover almost everything we need to know to answer some of the big questions about the significance of the Russia covert interference operation in the British democratic processes. And about the lengths to which the powers that be, for their own political reasons, went to cover this whole thing up from the watchful eye of the British electorate. In this episode you also hear the voices of journalist and author, Catherine Belton, writer and historian, Anne Applebaum and former Intelligence and Security Committee members Stewart Hosie and Kevan Jones.Sergei and the Westminster Spy Ring will be taking a short break and will return soon to conclude this season.A Project Citizen productionTo find out more about the story and issues it raises visit www.the-citizens.comPresented by: Carole Cadwalladr and Peter JukesWritten by: Carole Cadwalladr and Peter JukesProducer and Sound Design: Ruth AbrahamsStudio Producer: Sean Byrne RobertsLocation Producers: Sheridan Flynn and Manasa NarayananOriginal Music: Phil ChannellMixed: Nigel Appleton Hosted on Acast.
