And could more have been done to prevent a five-figure payout following his downfall? Niall is joined by Sky’s political correspondent Rob Powell, who has been going through the files.

Military chiefs vs the PM

The government, like the rest of us, is trying to work out where it stands this morning after Donald Trump swung from hitting Iran ‘twenty times harder’ to ending the war ‘very soon’. If Trump’s got things to boiling point and now looking for an offramp – how will that make the UK response look? Sam and Anne pick up on what they’re hearing about relations between the PM and his defence chiefs. Back in Parliament, the Courts and Tribunal Bill returns to the Commons – we go over the streamlined plans for juries – and where any rebellion could come. Plus, Kwasi Kwarteng, Nigel Farage and bitcoin.

Oil spikes: How high is the price of war?

As Iran names its new supreme leader oil prices skyrocket, sending shockwaves across the global economy – but how will the UK government deal with the issue? President Trump claims the surge is a “small price to pay” for peace - but as G7 finance leaders hold an emergency meeting later today can they find ways to limit the damage? Sam and Anne discuss the steps Keir Starmer can take to reassure the public, if the conflict could hit people’s pockets and whether there is potential of world economies collapsing under the pressure. The pair also consider the increasingly turbulent “special relationship's”: is it just a one-way street? Plus, with the courts bill returning to the House of Commons tomorrow will we get a picture of how big a potential rebellion could be?
