Following President Macron's state visit to the UK, Pippa discusses the visit and joint announcement on channel crossings with former Conservative Immigration Minister Damian Green, who also served as First Secretary of State for Theresa May and the Labour MP for Dover and Deal Mike Tapp.

Conservative MP Damian Hinds, a former Education Secretary, and Labour MP Jen Craft discuss the debate over the future of special educational needs and disabilities provision for children.

Also, Pippa interviews Paul Johnson, the outgoing director of the Institute for Fiscal Studies.

And, to reflect on the life and legacy of the former Conservative Cabinet Minister Lord Tebbit, who died this week, Pippa speaks to Tim Bale, professor of politics at Queen Mary University of London and Mary Ann Sieghart, political commentator and writer.
