PM brands Matt Hancock 'hopeless' in texts revealed by Dominic Cummings. "Wtf do we do?" might have been the question the Prime Minister was asking himself this morning when Dominic Cummings decided to leak their private Whatsapp messages. Laura and Adam chat about that blog post. As inflation rises across the UK to 2.1%, above what was predicted, the BBC's Colletta Smith explains what the numbers mean, and why it matters. Plus, is it better for the environment to cycle or take the tube? On the day that the Committee on Climate Change releases another damning report into the government’s response to climate change, Chief Executive of the CCC Chris Stark tells Adam how we can change our behaviour to support the environment. Today’s Newscast was made by Maz Ebtehaj with Danny Wittenberg, Georgia Coan and Ben Cooper. The Studio Director was NicK Jones. Dino Sofos is the Editor.
