Iran-Israel conflict: Will Trump (and Starmer) go to war?
Manage episode 489824529 series 3011927
With conflict in the Middle East is dominating the headlines, the New Statesman’s Rachel Cunliffe joins the podcast team to explore Keir Starmer’s attempts to influence Donald Trump and ask whether the UK has a role to play beyond that of a concerned bystander.
There is plenty of domestic politics around too, with the prime minister announcing an inquiry into grooming gangs - having said, only a few months ago, that he wouldn’t – and the government trying to face down a rebellion over its welfare budget cuts.
Plus: John Major at the IfG and what comes next for government standards and ethics.
Presented by Hannah White.
With Catherine Haddon.
Produced by Candice McKenzie
