About this episode
Today, the Labour party have denied interfering with the US election after the Trump campaign filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission in Washington.
Adam is joined by Justin Webb, Americast host, and Nick Watt, Newsnight political editor, to discuss the allegations made by the Trump campaign of "blatant foreign interference" and Labour’s response. They discuss previous examples of Brits getting involved in US elections - and how it tends to go down with voters.
And, Adam and Marianna speak to American voters about how they’re voting and what their experience of the 2024 election campaign has been.
