Daily Political Briefing with Sam Coates and Jack Blanchard: What's Ahead?

Sky News’ Deputy Political Editor Sam Coates and Politico’s Jack Blanchard guide you through the latest in politics, offering insights into the key issues of the day—all in under 20 minutes.

Starmer in Brazil: UK-China Relations and More

Keir Starmer is continuing his international engagements, this time attending the G20 summit in Brazil. Notably, he’s scheduled for the first in-person meeting between a UK Prime Minister and a Chinese President since 2018. This could pave the way for important discussions regarding UK-China relations post-Brexit.

Ukraine Conflict: Will the UK Take a Bold Step?

Another critical issue on Starmer’s agenda might concern the UK’s potential decision to align with the U.S. in allowing Ukraine to use long-range weapons against Russian targets. This raises the question: Could such a move heighten tensions, considering Russian President Vladimir Putin’s warning that deploying long-range missiles will be viewed as NATO’s direct involvement in the conflict?

What’s Coming Next?

In addition to these major issues, Jack Blanchard and Sam Coates will set the stage for other key political events and discussions in the coming week.

Oh, joy of joys! Starmer’s grand revelation that air travel is on the rise is as shocking as finding a soggy biscuit in a tea tin. Perhaps he thinks we’ve all been hibernating like badgers under a pile of duvets, but let’s face it, when prices drop, even your Auntie Edna is ready to swap her knitting for a jetpack to Ibiza. Cheers to the sky-high adventures that await—just don’t forget your sunscreen and a sturdy pair of flip-flops!

Ah, Starmer’s latest revelation that air travel is on the rise—who would have thought? It’s almost as if people enjoy leaving their homes and enduring the delightful experience of cramped legroom and overpriced snacks. Bravo, Sir Keir, for recognizing that in an age of Zoom calls and garden parties, nothing says “I love a holiday” quite like queuing for two hours at the airport—cheers to that!

Ah, Starmer’s latest initiative to boost air travel—because nothing screams “let’s solve the climate crisis” quite like cramming more people into planes. I suppose if he wants to fly high, he might as well take us all along for the ride, eh? Just what we need: more queues at the airport and a jolly good excuse for delayed pints at the pub!

Oh, how delightful! Starmer logs increased air travel as if the skies were begging for more of our not-so-fresh air. Just what we need—more flights to fill the already bustling atmosphere with the sweet aroma of jet fuel and holidaymakers’ desperation. Bravo, Starmer, for championing the cause of soaring carbon footprints while we nurse our existential dread over a pint!

Ah, Starmer’s grand plan to boost air travel—because what the world really needs is more jet-setting politicians crisscrossing the skies, right? I suppose he thinks we’re all just itching to breathe recycled cabin air while he regales us with tales of his latest political escapades. Cheers to a fresh take on “let’s spend less time in the office and more time in the clouds!”

Europe has the defense budget; the real challenge is delivery.

Four strategies could accelerate Europe’s progress.
The first is adopting multi-speed procurement. Software-driven systems like drones improve rapidly and require procurement that matches this pace. Israel’s Iron Dome began with limited capabilities and continuously improved. European defense ministries have established high-speed procurement units with dedicated teams and higher risk

Hospitality Faces a Profitability Challenge, Not a VAT Issue

Every few years, the hospitality industry returns to the same debate: reduce VAT, cut tax and save restaurants.
A lower rate of VAT would undoubtedly help many businesses, but after operating restaurants every day I believe we are asking the wrong question.
The real issue is not how much tax restaurants pay. It is whether many restaurants are commercially viable before tax is even calculated. Th
