James also dives into the potential impact of Trump’s second presidency on the UK-US relationship and the ongoing debate around reforming the House of Lords. Wharton reflects on the shifting dynamics of right-wing politics, Labour’s internal struggles, and the broader landscape of political change in the UK.
