Better The Sunak You Know?

And, a new report into 鈥榮hockingly poor鈥 maternity services

Today, we look at Rishi Sunak鈥檚 claim that the election would be a choice 鈥渂etween past and future鈥, as Labour accused him of rebranding again.

In a wide-ranging speech, the PM said that Keir Starmer would make the UK less safe and that the Tories are 鈥渢he only party really talking about the future.鈥 But Labour responded by claiming this was Rishi Sunak鈥檚 鈥7th reset鈥 during his time in office. Are the battlegrounds for the election being drawn? Adam is joined by Chris who questioned Sunak after the speech.

And the Birth Trauma Inquiry was presented to parliament, finding that there was 鈥渟hockingly poor services鈥 in maternity care. It contained harrowing evidence of medical negligence from more than 1,300 women. Adam speaks to Theo Clarke, the Conservative MP who led the inquiry, and Suzanne White, Head of the Medical Negligence team at Leigh Day.
