As the Israel/Gaza war reaches stalemate, are hopes of a ceasefire just wishful thinking? Are “peace talks” in Ukraine just a euphemism for giving Putin what he wants? Plus Thames Water circles the plughole, the William Wragg WhatsApp fallout, and a total eclipse of everyone’s sanity. Ros Taylor sets out the week ahead with Andrew Harrison.  

• “I think we’re seeing a slow creep towards giving up some Ukrainian territory to Russia” 

• “The more Putin can pick-off Ukrainian support, particularly in Eastern Europe, the less likely Ukraine will be able to fight” 

• “The William Wragg honeytrap scandal could just be someone being mischievous, but it could well be something much more serious”
