'I Cannot Help', Podcast Finale Out Now
Catch the last episode of 'Sergei & The Westminster Spy Ring', where Carole, Peter and Sergei reflect on the story they’ve fought to uncover for so long.

As this tale of spies and influence at the heart of Westminster draws to a close, Carole, Peter and Sergei reflect on the story they’ve fought to uncover for so long. Meanwhile, The Guardian’s international correspondent Luke Harding shares his analysis of what Russian diplomats were up to in London. From the world of shadows, the former head of Estonian intelligence service, Rainer Saks, offers his perspective about the highly sociable “diplomat” Sergey Nalobin, and the whole Russian secret operation to interfere in the British democratic process.
And we talk about what we can do to learn the whole truth. The highly important “impact case” at the ECHR brought by The Citizens and MPs to force a proper enquiry into the Russian interference in British politics. Our legal team shares their views about the urgency for this action.
Plus Carole and Peter have one more call to make…
