About this episode

Today, with just three days to go until the ‘bazooka’ Autumn Budget is announced, Laura, Adam and Henry chat about what to expect from Chancellor Rachel Reeves.

Plus Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson announced her plans to rebuild schools and find those extra 6,500 teachers - but Labour’s ‘working person’ definition row rumbles on.

And we also hear from the Remoter voters, who are gearing up to cast their ballot in the US election.
