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

This week: As well as election fever ramping up as MPs return to Westminster, they look at what else is in store for Rishi Sunak. For starters, there’s a potential Tory backlash looming on government plans for more oil and gas exploration in the North Sea. Plus, ministers and rival factions of Tory MPs will start more talks over the controversial Rwanda bill.

And, Jack and Sam discuss some of the biggest international issues facing Parliament – with Lord Cameron of Chipping Norton appearing at the Foreign Affairs select committee on Tuesday.
