The US sides with Russia at the United Nations

The US has sided twice with Russia in votes at the United Nations on resolutions marking the third anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. What does this mean for Ukraine, and the free world?

Also, James presses play on some of Keir Starmer’s announcement of the "biggest sustained defense budget increase since the Cold War", in which the Prime Minister specifies how he intends to support peace in Ukraine.

And, Labour’s 1.5 million new homes pledge is in doubt due to a shortage of skilled workers. James asks about the reality of working on building sites, the likelihood of Labour achieving its pledge and how we should attract workers to come here to do the work.
