Is Iran becoming the new Iraq?

About this episode

Donald Trump is reportedly considering joining Israel's strikes on Iran. As this conflict escalates, comparisons will be drawn with the disastrous US military intervention in Iraq - is history repeating itself? 

Also, a new study named “Sleeping with the Enemy” found that the risk of splitting up with your partner if you disagree on Brexit increases by more than 60 per cent. Can you love someone and hate their politics?

And, James speaks with Tim Gregory, nuclear chemist working at the Sellafield nuclear site, who sets out the argument in his new book “Going Nuclear: How the Atom Will Save the World”.
