Episode description

Starmer and Sunak debated Labour's position on China at today's PMQs, with Starmer denying going soft on the Asian superpower. Did Sunak draw inspiration from Katy Balls's cover article in last week's Spectator? Katy and Isabel Hardman speak to Oscar Edmondson about the party dynamics behind the debate; how much pressure is each party under from their own China hawks? 

Isabel also gives an overview of the debate around the Assisted Dying Bill, which was introduced to Parliament today.

Produced by Patrick Gibbons and Oscar Edmondson.
