Jonathan Freedland is joined in the studio this week by religious affairs correspondent Riazat Butt, Guardian leader writer Anne Perkins, and Tim Samuels, presenter of Men's Hour on BBC Radio Five Live.
With another ream of secret documents thrust into the public domain, we begin by discussing what the Palestine Papers tell us about diplomacy in a WikiLeaks world. (Be sure to listen to our Focus podcast about the reaction in Middle East to the publishing of these documents.)
Also in this week's show, David Schneider gives us his analysis of the Andy Gray and Richard Keys sexism row. The pair were on-mic but off-air – so was this another example of this new WikiLeaks world, where nothing is off the record?
Finally, we examine how class and privilege has crept back into British politics and ask - much as Andrew Neil did this week - has meritocracy had its day?
