Episode Donald Trump and the politics of interfere

0:00 42:54

If there’s one thing we’ve learned about US politics in recent years, it’s this: don’t fall out with Donald Trump. So how have Keir Starmer and the Labour government ended up being dragged into a big row with the former - and maybe future - president? Foreign policy expert Sophia Gaston joins the podcast team to make sense of an unexpected twist in the US presidential election.

The PM is in Samoa for a meeting of Commonwealth leaders. But what can the UK hope to achieve at this gathering?

Plus: It has been a frenetic week of government activity, with reviews announced on the NHS, sentencing, water and more. But does this type of approach really make any difference?

Emma Norris presents.

With Alex Thomas and Stuart Hoddinott.

Produced by Candice McKenzie
