Episode description

Keir Starmer is making a 'plan for change' speech tomorrow. Just don't call it a relaunch. Why does the government think it's necessary? What will it hope to do? And is this about changing policy or messaging, as Reform threaten to transform UK politics with foreign money?

Later, South Korea has not only stopped martial law in its tracks hours after it was threatened, but appears to be about to impeach its own President. Is this what functioning democracy in action looks like?
