YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Laura and Seán are back to react to another fiery PMQs. Despite mentions of Iran and the Mandelson files, today's real headline comes from outside the Commons: Angela Rayner’s speech at a Momentum event last night which loomed large over today's session.

She warned that this Labour government is “running out of time” and criticised policies like Shabana Mahmood's immigration reforms. Badenoch wasted no time putting it to the Prime Minister at the despatch box.

Badenoch also pressed Starmer on whether he personally spoke to Peter Mandelson before his appointment, with the PM giving rather evasive answers. Starmer hit back hard, accusing both the Conservatives and Reform of reckless positioning and calling out Nigel Farage directly for his u-turns on the matter.

We also hear from Liberal Democrat MP and friend of the channel Martin Wrigley, who raised serious questions about AI, data sovereignty, and the UK’s reliance on big tech.
