Summary
The mainstream media's relationship with 10 Downing Street following this week's confusion over which journalists were allowed access to an official government briefing.
And the political relationship with the issue of climate change as the Prime Minister sacks a former minister who was due to chair a UN climate conference in Glasgow later this year. This as it's announced that the sale of all petrol and diesel cars will be banned by 2035.
Joining Adam Boulton this week are Director of the British Foreign Policy Group Sophia Gaston, visiting professor at London South Bank University James Woudhysen and Sky's political correspondent Joe Pike.
