Summary

Adam Boulton and guests discuss the diplomatic tensions between the UK and the European Union after the EU Council President Donald Tusk said there was a 'special place in hell' for politicians who promoted Brexit without a plan to deliver it.

And in the week Sky News announced that Beth Rigby is to become its new political editor, Adam recalls his 25 years in the hotseat and offers Beth his survival tips! Joining Adam and Beth are Sky's diplomatic editor Dominic Waghorn and the head of Sky Data Harry Carr.
