  • Does anyone know what the Starmer plan is?

    Does anyone know what the Starmer plan is?
    Jun 30 2025

    Tomorrow, Labour MPs will be asked to vote on the rejigged welfare reform bill. Senior Labour politicians Sadiq Khan and Andy Burnham still don’t think it’s worth the paper it’s written on. But the whole debacle has thrown up a bigger question about Starmer's leadership and authority. Does anyone really understand what’s in the PM's mind or what he is trying to achieve? We speak to the Starmer whisperer, Tom Baldwin.

    Later, Glastonbury, Bob Vylan and the BBC. And how has Wimbledon now become a symbol of Britain's decline?

  • How to catch a terrorist

    How to catch a terrorist
    Jun 27 2025

    This Friday, Lewis is joined in the studio by the newest members of the 'agents' family. Neil Basu is former head of Counter Terrorism Policing and Andy Hughes is an investigative journalist who's been covering crime for two decades.

    They look back on 2017, a year which the UK experienced a series of devastating terrorist attacks, to talk about what it takes to catch a terrorist, and why some slip through the net.

Very topical, daily news from the UK. As an American who lived abroad in the UK in the 90s I love it! And with our countries still tightly connected in this global world the news agents commentary is very much appreciated!
