Kim Leadbeater's assisted suicide bill has been described by MPs as a "farce", an "embarrassment" and "beyond a joke". But last night's damning statement from the Royal College of Psychiatrists may be the fatal blow.

When politicians claim the public supports extreme measures like banning meat or digital ID you can be sure that behind it is a Citizens' Assembly or other dubious method for manufacturing 'consent', says Alex Klaushofer.

Greens have hijacked environmental concern and turned it into a branch of radical Leftist politics. But in truth conservatism cares about conserving our home. Conservatives need to reclaim green politics, says Sean Walsh.

3pm: Into the Fire: The Hidden Victims of Austerity in Greece (2013)

In times of severe austerity things look bleak for Greek
people, but they’re far worse for those who have
recently arrived. Without housing, legal papers or
support, migrants in Greece are faced with increasing
and often violent racism at the hands of the growing
neo-Nazi Golden Dawn party and the police.
Shot and edited with sensitivity and compassion, it
doesn’t pull its punches and makes for harrowing
viewing in parts. This film gives incredible insights into
the reality faced by people who simply want to lead
peaceful, normal lives, and how they are organising to
protect themselves.
■ Directed by Guy Smallman and Kate Mara.

4pm: The Inquiry (2013)

A film reconstruction of the Askwith Inquiry which took
place during the 1913 Lockout. This Inquiry was set up
by the British Government, supposedly to investigate
the origins of the dispute, to resolve the grievances of
workers and employers, and to end the strike. William
Martin Murphy represented the employers’ side with
Jim Larkin and James Connolly speaking for the
workers.
The film follows the course of the negotiations and
includes Connolly’s famous “Statement of the Workers’
Case”. Askwith reported in his findings that the workers
had significant grievances but the employers rejected
the inquiry’s recommendations.
■ Written by Turlough Kelly; Directed by Brian Gray.
