Wednesday Feb 23, 2022
In the aftermath of Grenfell, Britain was left with an enormous housing problem. There were tens of thousands of buildings covered in the same dangerous cladding material which made Grenfell Tower so deadly. When the cladding was installed, it was thought to be an incredibly safe material. Now we have come to realise it's anything but. However, the damage seems to have already been done. Many buildings are now covered with incredibly dangerous and hazardous materials that need to be replaced. But who should pay?

Wednesday Feb 02, 2022
Wednesday Feb 02, 2022
You might have seen videos during lockdown of people quoting the Magna Carta and saying they don't consent to any laws.

We invited comedian and barrister Chris Kehoe (also of Fully Legal podcast) to discuss whether or not being a Freeman Of The Land has any legal basis.
