Strategic Defence Review: How will Starmer balance the costs ?
A look at the week's big stories and preview of the week to come.
Ahead of the publication of the Strategic Defence Review we discuss the dilemma faced by the Prime Minister. The Government is committed to increasing defence spending in the face of Russia aggression and warnings from the US. Meanwhile the message many have taken from Thursday’s election results is that voters want rapid improvements in public services. How can the PM square this circle? Also; Peggy Seeger at 90 on the release of her new album.
