38:08Now PlayingAndy, Laura, and Seán react to a particularly heated PMQs showdown between Kemi Badenoch and Keir Starmer, as the Tory leader ramps up the rhetoric over Trump’s escalating conflict with Iran.
As Donald Trump pushes forward with military action, Badenoch demands to know why the RAF isn’t striking Iranian missile sites, accusing the Prime Minister of weakness, dithering and putting welfare before defence. But Starmer insists the UK will not join a war without a lawful basis and a viable plan, even while allowing US planes to operate from British bases.
The trio break down whether Badenoch is banging the war drum, and ask whether this reasonable opposition or reckless point-scoring. They dig into what the special relationship looks like in practice, as well as echoes of Harold Wilson's response to Vietnam.
