The Iraqi Prime Minister has said he will take the country’s President to court, for what he describes as “violating constitutional rules.” Nouri al-Maliki criticised President Fuad Masum for not intervening after Parliament failed to grant him a third term as Prime Minister. There are calls for al-Maliki to step down as an insurgency hits the north of Iraq.

Joining John Rees to discuss the issue are Paul Schulte, a defence specialist and an Honorary Professor at the University of Birmingham, and Dr Rebwar Fatah, Director of the Middle East Consultancy Services.
