Sky News' deputy political editor Sam Coates and Politico's Anne McElvoy look at the day ahead in British politics.
Returning from an Easter break for a new season, Sam and Anne begin by discussing how British and global politics will react to the death of Pope Francis. They discuss the Pope's own role in politics around the world and the legacy he leaves behind.
Meanwhile, Rachel Reeves is heading to Washington ahead of her first IMF spring meetings, amid pessimistic predictions for the UK's own economy. Sam and Anne discuss if the chancellor can bring Trump's tariffs on the UK down and keep hopes high for a US-UK trade deal.
