Description

The future of a two-state solution between Israel and Palestine comes into question this week, as Ed Balls and George Osborne respond to a listener asking whether Israeli public opinion has shifted irreversibly after the October 7th attacks. Is peace still possible, or has that hope died with the victims?


Another listener shares a devastating story about her mother’s death during the junior doctors' strikes, raising serious questions about end-of-life care and what, if anything, Wes Streeting can do to bring doctors back to work. Is palliative care in this country just a postcode lottery?


Plus - a challenge from Emily Thornberry on who kept ministers in check when Ed and George were in power, why successive governments might have gambled away billions in debt costs, and political flights that changed careers and reshaped governments.
