Today, we look at a tricky week for the Prime Minister where he has faced difficult questions over his judgement. Adam, Chris, Paddy and Alex are re-united in the studio for the return of the Newscast BBC 1 show. What have they all made of the row over the pay of Sue Gray? Is it a problem for Starmer that he's top of the freebie league table? What did Alex learn travelling with the PM to Italy? You can now listen to Newscast on a smart speaker.
