About this episode

Emma Barnett discusses the potential return of Brexit debates, parenting responsibilities, and the implications of allegations in reality TV.

As Labour leadership hopeful Wes Streeting vows to bring the UK back into the EU Emma asks - do we really want to have that fight again? Or is it fair enough if many of us have changed our minds? Would you dob your child in to the police? The Government is bringing in harsher penalties for the parents of children who commit crimes, saying it's time to remove the influence of "parents who can't parent". Is it all the fault of Mum and Dad? Plus as the makers of Married at First Sight face the consequences of rape allegations on set, do producers need to rethink the format - and have higher standards of care in reality TV? Ready to Talk News is a Long Form Audio production for BBC Sounds.
