Barnier, Biden and Boring?

House of Comments

Co-hosts Charlotte Henry and Emma Burnell unpack a dramatic week at home and abroad. They start with the government's collapse in France, discuss US President Joe Biden pardoning his son and then analyse Sir Keir Starmer's latest speech. The Prime Minister was attempting to reset his government, although the Labour spinners were not putting it quite like that.
