Ben Kentish shares his thoughts

0:06 - Ben Kentish points out that James McMurdock has become 'the poster boy of giving people a second chance', but says his 'gut instinct' is that he shouldn't be allowed to be an MP.

5:58 - Caller Sal says: 'Is it fair that you should hold it against him? No. It was 20 years ago.'
10:37 - Caller Julia says: 'I'm a teacher, if I went out and punched someone in the face, I would display behaviour that hopefully would legally prevent me from looking after children again.'
'He didn't steal a packet of crisps, he assaulted somebody', says caller Julia.
