Episode description

Thousands of documents published by the government have revealed that while Lord Mandelson was the US ambassador, he repeatedly criticised Sir Keir Starmer's leadership in discussions with ministers. The exchanges were released as part of the publication of the second set of documents relating to Lord Mandelson's time in Washington. In other news, Israel's military has told residents of Beirut's southern suburbs to evacuate after the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, ordered his forces to target the area; and an international court has ruled that the UK will not have to pay Rwanda costs or compensation for the Labour government's decision to scrap the Conservatives' plan to deport some migrants there.
