Podcast interview with Tom Harris MP. By Charon QC
We have teamed up with Charon QC to do a series of political podcasts to be published on his site and the Wardman Wire . This is an interview with Tom Harris MP; it is Lawcast 136.
Tom Harris MP is the Labour member for Glasgow South, an enthusiastic user of twitter and author of his own very active blog AND ANOTHER THING. Tom has also taken to podcasting himself in recent weeks with Jamie Read MP under the title Two men and a Pod – and most enjoyable they are too.
It is impossible for me to interview a well known MP and not mention the elephant in the room – the subject of MP expenses, the title of a podcast done by Tom and Jamie Read towards the tail end of last week. As far as I know, Tom Harris doesn’t have a moat and if he did, it is unlikely he would have claimed for it.

Tom Harris MP Exit Interview: Spending More Time with his Blog
In last week’s Britblog Roundup I covered the story that Tom Harris MP, the Rail Minister, had been shown the exit door in Gordon Brown’s reshuffle.
Tom gave a superb interview to BBC Today in Parliament yesterday (10 October).
The interview went out at 11:50pm on a Friday, so it was easy to miss and I thought I’d post the item here. It is about 10 minutes long.
