Immigrants across all parts of the UK have been reported to be living in fear over the violent anti-immigration riots. Many of the rioters say they have “legitimate concerns” - but is that just total bullshit? Because immigration is so central to this issue, what are Labour’s plans apart from scrapping the Rwanda plan? UK and EU migration expert Zoe Gardner joins the panel to discuss all of that. And in The Extra Bit for subscribers, should more people be obsessed with US politics?

The Greens pulled off an all-time best performance in the 2024 General Election, doubling their vote share to a historic high of 6.4% and winning four MPs. But can they handle the transition from outsiders to effective Parliamentary party? How do they square the need to remake Britain as a low-carbon economy and the traditional Green suspicion of development? And can they peel away disillusioned left voters from Labour? Co-leader Carla Denyer talks to Andrew Harrison about another green world.  

• “Rachel Reeves’ line that ‘there is no money’ is pretty misleading… This is one of the richest economies in the world.” 

• “There are policies everyone agrees on… but only the Greens are offering them.”
