Sunday - A podcast by BBC Radio 4 - Sundays

Should you make a promise you can’t keep? We reflect on the ethical issues thrown up by the week’s events in Parliament. Pope Francis has embarked on a 3 nation African tour. He’s visiting Mozambique, Madagascar and Mauritius. Martin Bashir, the BBC’s Religion Editor, has been travelling with the Pope.The historian Dan Jones has just written a new account of the era through the multiple perspectives of characters whose stories have seldom been heard. Much of the coverage of Robert Mugabe’s death has pondered on how a liberator became a tyrant. The answer is complex, as is the relationship between Christians in Zimbabwe and their former leader.And we have an in-depth investigation into the allegations of sexual and physical abuse against Sogyal Rinpoche.Producer: Louise Clarke-Rowbotham Rosie Dawson Editor: Amanda Hancox
