Description

Two of Westminster's best-connected journalists, Sky News's Sam Coates and Politico's Jack Blanchard, guide us through their predictions of how British politics will play out over the next seven days. This week Jack and Sam discuss whether Sir Lindsay Hoyle will be forced to bow out as Speaker of the House following his opposition day blunder over the Gaza ceasefire vote. As the SNP continues to push for another debate day with a meaningful vote, will he survive the political pressure coming at him from all sides? Plus, Jack and Sam look at increasingly tense public protests over Gaza, the growing safety risk facing MPs, how the Conservative Party will handle outspoken MPs accused of stoking racial divides and what the fallout will be after the Rochdale by-election on Thursday.
