What should lead the news? Three people pitch the story they think matters most to Tortoise’s editor-in-chief James Harding.
In this episode Green MP Caroline Lucas joins the team to discuss Cop28, the UN’s climate summit in Dubai and political editor Cat Neilan has the latest on the Tory revolt over the government’s Rwanda policy.
News editor Jess Winch explores why evidence that Hamas raped women on 7th October took so long to come to light and Tortoise editor Ceri Thomas thinks Boris Johnson’s evidence to the Covid inquiry should get the attention it deserves.
