Summary

This episode has been edited to remove a discussion on the China spy case. The Rest Is Politics wishes to make clear that Mr Christopher Cash and Mr Christopher Berry were found not guilty of gathering and providing information prejudicial to the safety and interests of the state under the Official Secrets Act 1911 and have always maintained their innocence, categorically denying knowingly spying for China. Was banning Maccabi Tel Aviv fans the right call? What does Prince Andrew’s latest downfall reveal about the royals? What will Sanae Takaichi's premiership mean for Japan?
