Keir Starmer has completed his first visit to the White House – and delivered a letter from King Charles to Donald Trump. So just how special is the special relationship looking this weekend? Defence expert Karin von Hippel, formerly of RUSI, joins the podcast team to look back on a huge week for international relations.

Does the PM’s plan to boost defence spending by cutting the international aid budget add up. We’ll look at the sums - and weigh up the consequences of this trade-off.

PLUS: The boss of the NHS is on the way out and local government finances are under massive pressure.

Presented by Hannah White.

With Alex Thomas and Stuart Hoddinott
