  • Was Rachel Reeves’ spring statement out of date on arrival?

    Was Rachel Reeves’ spring statement out of date on arrival?
    Mar 4 2026

    Yesterday, the Chancellor Rachel Reeves delivered her spring statement - an economic update - to the commons.


    With the news completely dominated by conflict in the Middle East, you would be forgiven for not noticing. In fact, many have deduced that this was exactly what the government were hoping for.


    Anoosh Chakelian is joined by Will Dunn to discuss.

  • Should the phrase "special relationship" be banned?

    Should the phrase "special relationship" be banned?
    Mar 3 2026

    Yesterday afternoon in the Commons, Keir Starmer took a stance against Trump's attacks on Iran. The US President has expressed his dissatisfaction with the Prime Minister.


    Is a rift developing? Should the UK be pivoting away from the US and towards Europe? And should talk of the "special relationship" be banned from the government's parlance?


    Oli Dugmore is joined by journalist, author, and ex-Foreign Office special adviser Ben Judah to discuss.

  • Iran war: Trump is playing into Putin's hands.

    Iran war: Trump is playing into Putin's hands.
    Mar 2 2026

    While the US bombs Iran, the Kremlin will see immediate advantages for Russia.


    Vladimir Putin expressed “deep condolences” to the people of Iran over the killing of supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei by US and Israeli forces.


    The Russian president – currently leading his own brutal and illegal war in Ukraine – condemned what he called Khamenei’s “assassination” as a “cynical violation of all norms of human morality and international law”.


    Russia and Iran are long-term “strategic partners”. They signed a new treaty in January last year.


    But while Putin offers consoling words to Iran, the Kremlin will undoubtedly have eyes on the potential benefits to them of a US-Israel war on Russia’s ally.


    So, is Trump’s war in Iran playing into Russia’s hands?
