As Rachel Reeves prepares for next week’s spending review, Beth explains why it could be a defining moment for the government and the chancellor is faced with difficult choices. 

Harriet talks about the two-child benefit cap and whether the government can afford to scrap it.  

And as Sir Keir Starmer puts the country on a war footing, Sky's defence correspondent Deborah Haynes joins Beth, Ruth and Harriet to talk about the strategic defence review and why there's no argument across parliament about defence spending. 

Deborah also talks about her own podcast The Wargame, which is out next week and simulates an attack on the UK.
