And the latest Saudi sportswashing as they get the 2034 World Cup


Labour has unveiled the biggest changes to - and liberalisation of - planning laws in a generation to help deliver on its promise of 1.5 million new homes this parliament.


With the Tories worrying that concerns of local people will be “completely swept aside”, Camilla and Kamal speak to shadow housing secretary Kevin Hollinrake who also claims the “majority” of the 1.5 million new homes will be for immigrants. 


Plus, Saudi Arabia has won an uncontested bid to host the 2034 World Cup, so we speak to chief sports writer Oliver Brown about FIFA's "grotesque" decision - the latest in a long line of Saudi attempts at 'sportswashing'.
