About this episode
There are new questions about who knew what and when about the collapse of a trial of alleged Chinese spies.
Beth, Ruth, and Harriet explain why a row involving names you might not know does have implications for the country – can Beijing be both a friend and a foe?
And while there are questions for government and civil servants – they ask if Kemi Badenoch has made a misstep with her response.
Plus, Beth was there as Donald Trump announced his plan for peace in the Middle East. She shares the stories from her last-minute trip to join world leaders in Egypt.
And come back on Sunday for our bumper back to back interviews with both candidates in the Deputy Labour Leadership contest - Bridget Phillipson and Lucy Powell.
Remember, you can also watch Beth Rigby, Harriet Harman and Ruth Davidson on YouTube.
