About this episode
Today, Ed Davey has vowed to lead the fight against Nigel Farage in his speech to the Liberal Democrat Conference.
Davey argued that the Lib Dems had a "moral responsibility" to challenge Reform and urged his party to embrace patriotism to speak for "Britain's decent silent majority".
Adam speaks to Chris from the conference in Bournemouth, and also interviews the Liberal Democrats’ deputy leader Daisy Cooper.
Plus, Adam is joined by Jeremy Bowen, the BBC’s international editor, to discuss his new Panorama - Gaza: Dying for Food. In it, Jeremy looks at the food shortages in Gaza and allegations of war crimes which the IDF denies.
