Epstein Files: New Mandelson and Andrew Allegations

A second woman is alleging that she was sent to the UK by Jeffrey Epstein for a sexual encounter with Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor following the release of more documentation from the Epstein files.

The encounter allegedly occurred at the former prince's residence, Royal Lodge, in 2010.

BBC News has asked Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor for comment, but so far he has not responded to these accusations.

Laura, Paddy and Henry discuss the story and what it could mean for victims.

And John Bew, a professor, historian and former chief foreign policy adviser to four prime ministers, is in the studio to talk about what Trump might do in Iran, Ukraine, UK defence, and his time in Downing Street.
