554. Burnham’s Worldview, Trump's Ceasefire Collapse, and Advising Count Binface
About this episode
Can Andy Burnham's 'Makerfield test' survive contact with a world of Trump, China, and a raging Iran crisis? Why did every one of Netanyahu's promises to Trump about the war with Iran - from destroying the ballistic missile programme to fomenting revolution - turn out to be wrong? What advice does Alastair have for Count Binface in his fight against Nigel Farage in Clacton?
Join Rory and Alastair as they answer all these questions and more in this week's edition of Question Time.
