Former neo-Nazi withdraws as Tory council candidate

PM

Full coverage of the day's news

Joshua Bonehill-Paine has withdrawn as a Conservative council candidate after a row over his extremist past. It comes on the same day as Tory leader Kemi Badenoch defended the decision to let him run for local office. We hear from a former Tory minister who says the row has damaged the party. Also on the programme: authorities in Germany are examining a drone fittted with explosives that was found at an airport near Leipzig. We hear why suspicion has fallen on Russia. Plus: why are smells from our past so evocative? A group of French scientists say they have found the link between memory and odour. But do their claims pass the sniff test?
