- Description
- Overnight, Ukraine's capital suffered one of its worst bombardments in nearly a year. Scores were injured by ballistic missiles, and since recording, the death toll has risen to twelve. Putin’s attack came just hours after Trump had publicly berated Zelensky for being “the obstacle to peace.” It’s hard not to see how Putin may have been emboldened by Trump’s words.
Which may be why, as America woke up, Trump issued what sounded like an edict to Putin — or rather, to “Vladimir” — simply saying: STOP. But is Trump anywhere close to genuinely criticising his long-time Russian ally? We speak to Ukraine-based journalist Conall Kearney for insight from the ground and analysis on how this moment is playing out geopolitically.
Later, Keir Starmer is facing mounting pressure from sixty of his backbench MPs to open a route for young Britons to live, work, and travel in Europe. Could a new UK-EU youth visa scheme be on the horizon?

- London was set to host a major Ukraine peace summit today — but in a dramatic turn of events, the United States Secretary of State pulled out late last night. The sudden withdrawal has thrown the summit into disarray and left observers questioning whether any meaningful agreement was ever on the table. Without U.S. backing, the prospect of a signed peace deal now seems remote.
Attention has quickly shifted to the funeral of Pope Francis this Saturday, which may become a de facto summit for European leaders. With both President Trump and President Zelensky expected to attend, this could be the most significant face-to-face moment in the conflict’s recent history. The stakes are even higher after Trump insisted that peace talks must be concluded by April 30th — or he walks away entirely. Is he bluffing, or is this the final deadline for a deal?
Later in the episode, we turn to UK politics. What exactly did Robert Jenrick mean when he suggested a “coaliti...

The IMF has issued a dire global economic forecast, predicting a sharp slowdown in growth for every major economy. At the same time, Donald Trump is reportedly trying to fire Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell — despite the Fed's independence from government control.
With Trump pushing a controversial tariff plan and the central bank under fire, could this be the start of a global financial crisis? What happens if Powell is removed? And why hasn’t Trump learnt from the past?

The Supreme Court has ordered the Trump administration to facilitate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia — a young El Salvadoran national wrongfully deported in what the Court called an "administrative error." Protected from deportation in 2019 due to gang violence, Garcia has no criminal record, yet the Trump administration has refused to comply.
Labeled a “terrorist” without evidence, Trump claims he is powerless to bring Garcia back, despite a direct ruling from the highest court in the United States.
Is this the moment America slides into a constitutional crisis?
Jon and Emily speak with Congressman Juan Vargas, who has met with Garcia’s family and is leading efforts to secure his return.

- After years of fierce debate over trans rights and gender identity, the UK Supreme Court has ruled that the word “woman” in the 2010 Equality Act refers only to “biological” women. The landmark decision is being called a major moment in the ongoing culture war.
But what does this ruling actually mean in practice?
Was this a legal victory for the women who brought the challenge — or a symbolic one? How will this affect trans women in the UK going forward? And does it risk fuelling further backlash and division in the debate over gender, equality, and legal rights?
Emily and Jon break down what’s changed, what hasn’t, and what comes next.

- The night after one of the deadliest Russian attacks on Ukrainian civilians since Putin’s invasion, the American President went all block caps, posting: “I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS WAR.”
Clearly rattled, Trump had just been briefed that a ceasefire was close — following talks between his own envoy and Vladimir Putin. Just 24 hours earlier, he told us things were “heading in the right direction.”
Then came the missile strike on Sumy — a city preparing for Palm Sunday.
So does Donald Trump have no real sense of Putin’s mindset? And does this prove he has no path to peace?
Jon and Emily are joined by Ukrainian MP and youngest-ever governor of Odessa, Solomiia Bobrovska, to talk about what this moment means for Ukraine, Trump, and any hope of a ceasefire.

- Is China sabotaging British industry from the inside? That’s the warning coming from within Parliament, where some MPs and ministers believe Beijing’s influence on UK infrastructure and trade is reaching a dangerous tipping point — even if few dare to say it out loud.
As the UK Government takes control of British Steel — a company previously owned by China — we ask: is Britain embracing China, or finally trying to pull away? What does this mean for the future of UK-China relations, and how will it affect our economy, national security, and industrial independence?
Plus: what is China planning to build in the heart of London’s financial district — and why are officials keeping it quiet?

- 2 years ago
- Description
- In a dramatic turn, Parliament has been recalled to urgently debate the future of British Steel. In Scunthorpe, 2,700 jobs hang in the balance after the Chinese-owned steelworks declared its blast furnaces financially unsustainable. With thousands more jobs across the supply chain at risk, this isn’t just about steel — it’s about the future of Britain’s industrial heartlands.
Earlier this week, Keir Starmer declared the UK has entered a “completely new world” — promising to rewire the state. But how does that square with his recent pledge to create a smaller, more agile government, as he told The News Agents last month?
In this special report, Lewis Goodall travels to Scunthorpe, a town on the brink, to explore whether this moment marks the end of the era of globalisation, and the rise of a more active state taking control of vital national industries.
What does this mean for Britain’s economy, politics, and working-class communiti...

- As Donald Trump announced a “pause” on his tariffs policy, his own trade negotiator was being grilled by Congress. Who knew what, and when? Did Trump insiders have advance knowledge of the reversal — and use it to their advantage? Or was Trump flying solo, leaving his team in the dark?
Trump is trying to spin the tariff U-turn as a strategic win. But Wall Street's reaction — with stock markets soaring — suggests the opposite: that the tariff trauma is over. Has Trump just boxed himself in? And will anyone trust his next move?
Later in the episode: Trump is now launching investigations into two former officials, accusing them of treason for speaking the truth about the 2020 election. His revenge campaign continues.
Plus, Lewis travels to Scunthorpe, ahead of a major decision on the future of British steel.

- Trump’s tariffs are crashing global markets — and now, China’s retaliation is adding fuel to the fire. As stock markets reel and investors dump assets in record numbers, something even more alarming is happening: the U.S. bond market is collapsing. And when Greece starts looking like a safer bet than America, alarm bells start ringing.
Confidence in the U.S. government is plummeting. So, is Donald Trump following the same doomed path as Liz Truss? Could his economic strategy lead to financial self-immolation? And if so… what happens next?
Later in the episode: why the Birmingham bin strikes are about more than just rubbish — and why they could soon spread across England. What’s really at stake?

- As Trump threatens to double tariffs on China, the trade war between two of the world's largest economies is rapidly intensifying. China has declared it will “fight to the end,” while Trump insists he won’t back down. With tensions rising, the world is watching: Will Trump be forced to admit this was a mistake? Who will blink first? And how will this escalating trade war impact the global economy, financial markets, and international relations?
Later, we speak to pollster Luke Tryl from More in Common about how voters in the UK are reacting to all this chaos — and how Keir Starmer is navigating the fallout. What does this mean for Britain’s position on the world stage?

In today’s episode, we ask: is this genuinely the outcome Donald Trump intended? Is he still maintaining that his strategy is working — or is this all part of a calculated collapse to force the rest of the world to the negotiating table? It can’t be both.
We also examine Keir Starmer’s plan for economic growth in the face of global volatility. What trade deals should Britain now be pursuing? Are Labour’s fiscal rules still viable under these circumstances?
Later in the episode, we ask why Israel has blocked two UK Members of Parliament from entering the country — and what it tells us about diplomatic relations right now.

- Declaring 'Liberation Day' for the USA, Donald Trump accused other countries of having "looted, pillaged, raped and plundered" America's economy. What he announced has sent tremors around the global economy and his own - Trump has set the stage for a global trade war.
His tariffs start at 10% and go up to as high as 74% for an unlucky few states like Bangladesh and Serbia. It’s mathematical spaghetti. The UK has avoided the higher EU rate of 20% - so do Leavers have a point when they tell us that Brexit saved us? Or is it all a bit more complicated than that? Later, why are Elon and Donald consciously uncoupling. Is Trump starting to see Musk as a loser?

- The JD Vance You DON’T Know...

- Description
- In this episode, we sit down with Sofia Nelson, a former classmate of JD Vance at Yale Law School and a guest at his wedding, for an exclusive, in-depth conversation about the man behind the headlines. As someone who knew JD Vance personally—before the bestselling book, before the politics, and before the national spotlight—Sofia offers rare insight into how he has changed over the years.
How did JD Vance transform from a thoughtful, introspective student into one of the most polarising figures in American politics today? What does she make of his recent actions, including his controversial trip to Greenland and increasing influence on foreign policy?
This is a unique look at JD Vance—not through soundbites or political spin, but through the eyes of someone who once knew him best.

- Are Trump's Tariffs About to SINK the UK Economy?!
- Runtime
- 32:49
- Date posted
- 2 years ago
- Description
- No sooner had the Chancellor sat down after her Spring Statement than Donald Trump announced to the world that he was slapping 25% tariffs on all cars imported into America. Car manufacturers are livid - and scared. And the OBR has warned that if the US goes further and imposes blanket tariffs, they could wipe out any short term prospect of growth in the British economy. With her room for manoeuvre already tight, could Rachel Reeves now have to rip up her latest plans? Are tax rises on the way? And is the UK going to be knocked about at the whim of Donald Trump and whatever he decides next?
Later, as the White House condemns criticism of the Yemen Signal security breach as “a witch hunt“, could it be that the US President is actually feeling more than a little bruised at the fallout from the revelations?

- Spring Statement: A DEATH WISH for the Economy?!
- Runtime

- Description
- Today, the Prime Minister was asked to directly express his confidence in the Chancellor. He did so without missing a beat. But how much support does Reeves have more widely in government, in her party and in the country at large?
Later, as Trump's defence secretary insists no war plans were leaked when a group chat on the cusp of bombing Yemen accidentally invited a journalist to join. The journalist in question then publishes the war plans he received. Like shooting fish.
