On Thursday last week Labour completed an unwelcome full slate. They have now lost council by-elections to every major party and the Greens.

In fact they've lost a greater share of the vote than any governing party at this point since 1992.

Hannah, John and Tom Morrison MP round up the conference season, discuss how Labour got into this mess and what the atmosphere is like in Parliament and on the streets.

Do you believe Britain should have more directly elected officials? Have Police and Crime Commissioners been a failure or is there a middle ground that can be reached?

In this episode David and John are joined by Els Otterman an elected water board representative from Water Natuurlijk in The Netherlands.

Given the dire state of British water infrastructure, and the massive campaign the Lib Dem have been doing on the sewage scandal, we wanted to hear from a country that is doing things a little differently.

Huge thanks to Els for taking the time to join us.
