Imagine waiting 73 years to become King and then you get dog-end policies from the bottom of a dying government’s drawer for your first speech to Parliament. We look at what’s in Rishi’s Big Plans – cigs! pedicabs! – and what’s conspicuous by its absence. Plus, does it matter whether Starmer is “statesmanlike” on Gaza or not? And Dorian sets up the Institution for Neutral Thinking.
Dr Robert Saunders AKA @redhistorian, author of Yes to Europe! The 1975 Referendum and Seventies Britain, is this week’s special guest.

• “A lot of Trump quotes from the trial make a lot more sense if you imagine they’re coming from a five year-old.” – Matt Green
