  1. Team Trump: 'Great minds' think alike - but can they run a country?

    Team Trump: 'Great minds' think alike - but can they run a country?

    Donald Trump has started to nominate who he wants in his top team.  As well as billionaire Elon Musk, controversial Trump loyalist Matt Gaetz and nephew of former president JFK, Robert Kennedy Jr, are among the picks. Matt Gaetz is a Florida congressman and the attorney general pick for Trump. In February 2023, the Justice Department declined to bring charges of sex trafficking a 17-year-old against Gaetz, who has denied wrongdoing since the allegations first came to light.  And as health secretary, Robert Kennedy Jr, or RFK Jr, is an anti-vaccine activist who has embraced a slew of other debunked health-related conspiracy theories, including the discredited theory that childhood immunisations cause autism.  Our host Niall Paterson is joined by US correspondent James Matthews and Julie Tsirkin, NBC News congressional correspondent in Capitol Hill, Washington, to hear more about president-elect Trump's selections and why they aren't the most popular options.   Producer: Soila Apparicio  Editor: Philly Beaumont

    Why is the ambulance service boss having to say sorry?

    A top ambulance boss has apologised after a year-long Sky News investigation revealed a culture of sexual abuse and harassment within the ambulance service.     On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson speaks to Sky correspondent Rachael Venables who has been leading the investigation into abuse patients and staff in the service have faced and what is being done to restore trust in those who care for us.   A spokesperson for NHS England said: “Any abuse or violence directed at NHS staff is totally unacceptable and will not be tolerated, and the NHS is committed to tackling unwanted, inappropriate or harmful sexual behaviour in the workplace. We have recently introduced new national guidance and training that will help staff recognise, report and act on sexual misconduct at work to stamp out this awful behaviour.” For more on this story click here  Producer: Alex Edden  Editor: Philly Beaumont

    Will Ukraine be Trumped?

    On the campaign trail, Donald Trump vowed it would take him "no longer than one day" to resolve the conflict in Ukraine with Russia. Some in Ukraine worry this could mean having to give up land in the east, as well as Crimea. Mr Trump's announcement that Fox News Channel's "Fox & Friends Weekend" co-host Pete Hegseth will become the US secretary of defence has also caused a stir given that, despite serving in the US National Guard, he lacks senior military or national security experience. Niall Paterson is joined by our chief correspondent Stuart Ramsay in eastern Ukraine, as he hears from soldiers on the frontline about how the fighting is going. And our US correspondent James Matthews talks to Niall about Mr Trump's latest cabinet appointments and what they say about the incoming administration's approach to Ukraine.

  4. Lineker goes: Does TV still need Match Of The Day?

    Lineker goes: Does TV still need Match Of The Day?

    After 25 years, Gary Lineker is leaving the BBC's Match Of The Day. He'll stay on for the corporation's coverage of the FA Cup and the next World Cup - but he'll get his Saturday nights back from the end of this season.   The change will likely help the BBC's presenter wage bill and might save some run-ins about Lineker's use of social media - but what about the programme he leaves behind?   Sixty years after MOTD's launch, do TV viewers really still "look away now" to avoid the scores before 10.30pm on a Saturday? In the era of YouTube fan channels, TikTok accounts and wall-to-wall live coverage, is a set-piece highlights programme showing its age?   Niall Paterson looks over the options for one of the BBC's biggest brands - how can it change for an audience falling out of love with linear TV without alienating other viewers?   He's joined by our sport correspondent, Rob Harris, and Stuart Rowson, former BBC Sport exec who now works with brands to attract younger audiences.  Producer: Emma Rae Woodhouse  Editor: Paul Stanworth

  5. Who will play climate good cop to Trump’s bad cop?

    Who will play climate good cop to Trump’s bad cop?

    When Donald Trump was elected in 2016, attendees of that year’s COP in Marrakech said an “orange cloud” had descended on the talks.     Eight years later, Trump has once again punctured the mood of this year’s climate conference in Baku, Azerbaijan.       On this episode of Sky News Daily we explore what the next Trump administration could mean for climate progress with Alden Meyer, senior associate at E3G working on US and international climate policy and politics, who has been to every COP bar one, since 1995.       Plus, Sky’s Tom Clarke, science and technology editor, joins Niall from Azerbaijan to discuss the significance of COP29.    Producer: Soila Apparicio  Editor: Philly Beaumont

    USA '24: Planning Trump’s America

    As Donald Trump begins to prepare for his return to The White House, our US correspondents James Matthews, Martha Kelner, and Mark Stone reflect on his historic election victory.    From criminal convictions to a defiant fist pump after his near assassination, it has been an extraordinary campaign for the president-elect. Having spent the year crisscrossing the country, the team share their most enlightening encounters with voters in the run up to election. They discuss how Trump was able to broaden his base and why two of the Democrats’ top issues of abortion and democracy ultimately fell flat.    And ahead of his January inauguration, we hear what America and the world can expect from the first few months of a second Trump presidency.      Producer: Rosie Gillott   Editor: Philly Beaumont

    USA ‘24: Trump vs The World

    It's back to the White House for Donald Trump in January after a decisive election victory.  Less clear, however, are the global implications of Trump's return to office.  Sky's US correspondent James Matthews presents this episode of the Sky News Daily from Palm Beach in Florida to explore what Trump's historic victory could mean for the rest of the world.  With conflicts ongoing in the Middle East and Ukraine, Trump's agenda for US foreign policy is perhaps more significant than ever.  International Affairs Editor Dominic Waghorn and US Correspondent Mark Stone join James to discuss. ​​​​​​​Producer: Rosie Gillott Editor: Philly Beaumont

    6 NOV

    USA '24: What did Trump get right and Harris get wrong?

    Donald Trump has done it again and won the US election.     Eight years after beating Hillary Clinton and four years after Joe Biden evicted him from the White House, the former president is now the future president.     It's a remarkable comeback for the man whose reputation was severely damaged after the violence of the January 6 Capitol riots back in 2021.     On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson talks to Chris Jackson, senior vice president at Ipsos Public Affairs, about why the polls failed to predict Trump's resounding victory.    Producer: Soila Apparicio  Editor: Philly Beaumont
