Today, we look at the police launching an investigation into Angela Rayner over the accusation she broke electoral law.
The deputy leader of the Labour Party is accused of giving false information about her main residence in a row about who lived in her former council house. In a statement, she said she was "completely confident I've followed the rules at all times". Newsnight political editor Nick Watt joins Adam to discuss.
And after a week where we have heard from some former Post Office bosses. News and special projects reporter for The Times Tom Witherow brings us up to date on what’s been happening. Plus we hear from a former sub-postmistress, Seema Misra, after she gets a personal apology from a former managing director of the Post Office.
