Revolting! How much trouble are Sunak and Starmer in?

It's been a week of turmoil in British politics culminating in
the government losing its Rwanda case then taking on the Supreme
Court – and Labour losing ten from its frontbench following a
mass rebellion over Gaza.


There’s plenty for Amol and Nick to get stuck into this week on
The Today Podcast as they assess the political landscape and ask,
how much trouble are Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer in?


Two of the UK’s pre-eminent lawyers, human rights barrister and
Labour peer Helena Kennedy and former Supreme Court justice
Jonathan Sumption, give their take on why the government lost its
Rwanda case.
