Government wins Epping asylum hotel appeal

The government has won an appeal against a bid by Epping Forest District Council to block the housing of asylum seekers in a local hotel. We hear from a local councillor and a Labour MP on the Home Affairs Committee.

Also on the programme: we debate whether the handling of Covid is behind growing vaccine hesitancy and a mistrust of health experts in the United States; and why are seven American warships and thousands of marines heading to the Caribbean, off the coast of Venezuela?
