We read the papers so you don’t have to. Today: Trump threat. The former US president threatens to abandon NATO allies to Putin, as The FT leads with his 11 point lead on the economy. Gen Zzz… Young people aren’t leaving their houses and The Guardian thinks it knows why. Plus – Tea for two! Journalists from The Times share their worst dates and they’re all terribly posh. 

Miranda Sawyer is joined by journalist Chris Lochery of PopBitch and comedian and actor Fergus Craig.
