The White House reporter who ambushed Zelensky explains Trump's tariffs

It’s Liberation Day! But what does Donald Trump's plan for sweeping tariffs mean for the rest of the world?


The UK hopes to carve out an exemption, with Keir Starmer’s negotiators even offering last-minute concessions. And the stakes are high – the OBR has warned that tariffs could wipe out the Government’s fiscal wiggle room.


Kamal and Camilla assess the prime minister’s response to the saga and ask if he has the political skill to reach a trade deal.


Later, Kamal speaks to Brian Glenn, the White House correspondent who shot to fame when he challenged President Zelensky on his choice of outfit in the Oval Office. He explains the motivation behind Trump’s tariff plan - and his own state of mind during that now-infamous showdown.
