The Week in Westminster - A podcast by BBC Radio 4 - Saturdays

With the Budget coming up next week, Ben Wright discusses the decisions facing the chancellor with the Conservative MP Simon Fell and Gemma Tetlow - chief economist at the Institute for Government. The commissioner for public appointments, Peter Riddell, talks about his role. We hear an assessment of the current turmoil in Scottish politics from James Mitchell, professor of public policy at Edinburgh University. And why is the Union flag increasingly apparent - at press conferences, and in the background during ministerial interviews and announcements? Political communications experts Katie Perrior and John McTernan discuss. Producer: Libby Jukes
