Sam and Anne join forces 4,600 miles apart as the Prime Minister takes a jumbo trade and business delegation to India.
In Mumbai, the PM is given a warm welcome – with banners and posters lining the streets – but will the trip help or hinder the existing trade deal between the nations and business?
Back in Manchester, Anne has the latest from the Conservative conference as Kemi Badenoch prepares to make her speech to party members.
Elsewhere, the tit for tat trade war between the European Union and the United States could leave British Steel in a perilous position.
Later today, Sam and Anne will debrief Kemi Badenoch’s speech to the Conservative party conference.
