We present MERLIN, global VLBI and VLBA observations of the high-luminosity,
compact steep-spectrum quasar B1524−136 at cm wavelengths. These observations
reveal well-defined radio jets on both sides of the active nucleus, a situation
which is almost unique amongst high-luminosity radio quasars. However, the
radio jets on opposite sides are very dissimilar, and the overall radio
structure appears highly distorted. We discuss possible implications of these
observations.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, to appear in A&A Letter
