Two of Westminster’s best-connected journalists, Sky News’ Sam Coates and Politico’s Jack Blanchard, guide us through their predictions of how British politics will play out over the next seven days.

On this episode, after a government U-turn on measures to help Britain get to Net Zero, Rishi Sunak and the King both head to Dubai for COP28. Jack and Sam analyse the tone the prime minister may strike.

They explore the potential fallout from Matt Hancock’s upcoming appearance in front of the COVID inquiry – what might we learn from his turn in the chair? 

Legal migration stats have caused jitters in the Tory party – how will new Home Secretary James Cleverly respond this week? 

Plus – what does Rishi Sunak want out of this week’s investment summit?
