Why did Mike Lynch's yacht sink?

The Daily T

About this episode

British businessman Mike Lynch has been confirmed dead after his yacht sank off the Sicily coast during a freak storm earlier this week.


Kamal and Tim Stanley speak to the Telegraph’s Albert Tait on the ground in Sicily and maritime salvage expert Bertrand Sciboz about what happens to the wreck now. Plus Kamal reflects on Mr Lynch and his interviews with him over the years. 


And on GCSE results day, Kamal and Tim pour over the stats and ask why the new Labour government want to tax private schools so heavily given their students perform so well.
