Another episode, another cheap hotel room to record the podcast for Beth as she follows Keir Starmer for the Labour local election launch. 

Ruth and Harriet are a bit closer to home to discuss the real implications of Donald Trump's scoreboard of tariffs. 

It might have felt a bit Eurovision but how does the PM stay calm about what it means for the UK? Harriet explains how there are three camps in Labour with different views on whether the Chancellor's promise not to raise any more taxes can hold. 

She also thinks one consequence of a UK-US trade deal could be 'heartbreaking'. 

And with the makers of Netflix hit Adolescence going to Downing Street this week – we talk about how TV drama can make a difference in real life.
