Adam presents Newscast live on 5live rounding up the political week with James Heale of the Spectator, Emma Burnell of Labour List and Luke Tryl of More in Common.

What does Sue Gray think went wrong inside Starmer’s number 10? How much should we read into Reform’s recent infighting? And, did the public find the emergency alarm annoying?
