Beth Rigby, Ruth Davidson and Harriet Harman analyse Rachel Reeves’s spring statement and how Donald Trump may have made things worse for her.
The chancellor has redone her maths to make sure she sticks to her own rules on running the economy – but in doing that she has got tougher on welfare cuts. Can Labour keep the dissenting voices within their own party quiet? Harriet has some insight on how they’ll be trying to do that.
And do Trump’s tariffs on US car imports (and the prospect of more tariffs looming) just put the chancellor on the backfoot anyway?
Also, after an American journalist was added to a US government Signal group, how much government business is done on apps? And how much loose-lipped gossip is on there?
Meanwhile, as Beth goes into the last few weeks of London marathon training, did we just start the Electoral Dysfunction run club?
