    Is Rishi ditching a tax that would make him and his mates richer?

    Is Rishi ditching a tax that would make him and his mates richer?

    Rishi Sunak and his lectern are promising 'long term decisions for a brighter future'. But just whose future is getting brighter?

    Plans for HS2 are in chaos after rumours the PM might be about to ditch the wildly over-budget rail project. He's called environmental policies heavy handed - and ditched some of those targets. And now his ministers are starting to suggest that inheritance tax could be 'deeply punitive'. Will that be axed too?

    And we discuss the outlier poll for ABC news which gives Trump a 10 point lead over Biden in a presidential election.

    Why the poor in America stay poor

    Why the poor in America stay poor
    Are we responsible for keeping poor people poor? Sean Illing is joined by Matt Desmond, a sociology professor at Princeton University and the author of the books Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City and Poverty, by America. They discuss why most Americans are unaware of their privilege and how their choices perpetuate poverty. They also discuss the power and hope that can come from bringing awareness to these choices and why abolishing poverty is possible.

    Is Windsor an Indy Win? Plus the FM's In-Tray

    Is Windsor an Indy Win? Plus the FM's In-Tray
    Calum Macdonald, Andy Maciver and Geoff Aberdein look at the Windsor Framework that's been agreed by Rishi Sunak to solve Northern Ireland's place post-Brexit and ask: does this provide a route map to independence for Scotland, and for the SNP leadership candidates to campaign on? Plus, as teachers go on strike again and NHS waiting lists increase, we assess what's in the new First Minister's in-tray. And, how much power do the Green party have right now, and will they - and should they - still have any power when the new First Minister takes office?
