US election and Wales after the Firebreak
Political news, discussions and a round up of the papers with guest reviewers Swansea University's Dr Richard Thomas and Future Generations for Wales Commissioner Sophie Howe.
Joe Biden is to be the 46th President of the USA Kamela Harris the first women Vice President. So what can we expect? We discuss what lies ahead with writer Bonnie Greer, who describes herself as 100% Southside of Chicago and NYC, and Never Trump, alongside journalist and Trump supporter Steve Merczynski.
Closer to home the firebreak in Wales is about to come to an end. On the programme are Health Minister Vaughan Gething and shadow health minister Conservative MS Andrew RT Davies.
And as well as looking forward we'll be reflecting back on why certain areas of Wales were associated with conscientious objectors during World War One - we hear from the author of a new book on the subject, Cyril Pearce. And in the wake of the Great War came the Representation of the People Act, which gave the vote to some women. Two years later Lady Rhondda set up a feminist magazine 'Time and Tide' covering politics and the arts from a feminist perspective. We hear from Professor Angela V John on its importance a century on.
