Last week 38% of Egyptians came out and voted in favour of a new constitution and presidential elections are on their way. But with many boycotting the recent elections, as well as a total suppression of any 'no' campaign, can the results be considered representative of what the Egyptian people want? 3 years on from the protests that sparked the Egyptian revolution, is Egypt still on the bumpy road towards democracy or have the gains of the revolution been lost?
Joining presenter Jonathan Steele in the studio to discuss this are Mohamed Soudan, UK spokesperson for the Freedom and Justice Party and Tamar Bahgat, lawyer and expert in constitutional law and on the phone, Nadia Abou el Magd and on Skype in Cairo, Timothy Kaldas, Professor of Politics at Nile University.
