Episode description

The two likeliest contenders to be the next UK Prime Minister have both come under pressure in recent days... PM Rishi Sunak mocked Kier Starmer's stance on trans women, even though the mother of murdered transgender teenager Brianna Ghey was in the Visitors Gallery of the House of Commons; meanwhile Starmer himself, the Leader of the Opposition, has been criticised for u-turning on Labour's Green Prosperity Plan. Byline Times Political Editor Adam Bienkov assesses the performance of two leaders under pressure with Adrian Goldberg.
