Hello, you're listening to Cheat Sheet, the podcast that gets you up to speed with all you need to know in just 10 minutes.

It's Monday the 17th of November. I'm Wilfred Frost. And I'm Sophie Ridge. Let's have a look at what's happening today.

So the Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood is going to be setting out her plans to cut illegal migration. So we'll tell you what that means.
