Making Rachel Reeves nice once more

Sky News’ deputy political editor Sam Coates and Politico’s Anne McElvoy take a look at the day forward in British politics. 

Returning from an Easter break for a brand new season, Sam and Anne start by discussing how British and international politics will react to the demise of Pope Francis. They talk about the Pope’s personal position in politics world wide and the legacy he leaves behind.

Meanwhile, Rachel Reeves is heading to Washington forward of her first IMF spring conferences, amid pessimistic predictions for the UK’s personal financial system. Sam and Anne talk about if the chancellor can deliver Trump’s tariffs on the UK down and preserve hopes excessive for a US-UK commerce deal.
