"The big judgement for Starmer is whether he needs to show that European interest trumps the requirement to have a friendly relationship with America"
As Donald Trump is accused of living in a "disinformation" bubble after he blamed Ukraine for Russia’s invasion, the Talking Politics team explore the tricky position Prime Minister Keir Starmer finds himself in before his trip to Washington.
While Ukraine continues to dominate discussion, Paul Brand, Robert Peston and Emma Murphy also talk about the latest scrutiny facing assisted dying legislation in England and Wales and its chances of becoming law.
And with Chancellor Rachel Reeves facing more questions over her CV, the team consider how easy it is to make mistakes on your online profile and how trust in politicians and institutions – or lack of it – is having such an influence on so many debates right now.
