He talks to two donors about why they give money to the parties, and takes a look at how the billions of dollars being spent in the US have affected American political culture.
Plus: Columnists Jenni Russell and Paul Mason discuss Labour's response to the Israel-Gaza conflict, a new zero tolerance approach to shoplifting, and whether celebrity endorsements in politics make any difference.
