Bye Bye Biden

This week, the show starts in the US. President Joe Biden has announced he is not standing for re-election. It's a huge story and an end to an amazing career of public service. Co-hosts Charlotte Henry and Emma Burnell discuss President Biden's legacy and Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign to succeed him. In the UK, they discuss Sir Keir Starmer suspending the whip from seven rebel MPs and facing his first PMQS.

This is the last free show before a Summer break. See you soon!
