PM News Letter

Hello,

So, it's not, technically, new year but it is our first PM of 2012 so I'm going to wish you all the best for the 12 months ahead.

It's a bank holiday so you may not be back into the swing of things yet. Let us ease you back into the flow…

A couple of stories we're looking at:

As concerns over faulty breast implants continue - we're prompted to talk more widely about why people choose to have cosmetic surgery and ask if they are aware of the risks. Steven Wright (PM's number 2 editor today) is on the phone to Susie Orbach at the moment. …. a radio car is being revved up…..

We'll take a look at the three new year's messages from the main party leaders - David Cameron's today follows Ed Miliband's and Nick Clegg's. We're calling three backbenchers to invite them to join us for a debate.

Do you know anything about the main candidates for the Republican leadership in the USA? We'll try to find an interviewee who can remedy that.

And we have the latest in Eddie's big interviews with people for whom 2011 was an unforgettable year. Today he hears from a British Army commander about his time in Afghanistan.

That's about all I can tell you at the moment. Join us if you can at 5.

Carolyn
