John Healey appointed chancellor as Prime Minister Andy Burnham builds his cabinet
20/07/2026 | 37minEd Miliband becomes foreign secretary, Shabana Mahmood stays at the Home Office, and Angela Rayner returns to the cabinet in her former role of housing secretary. We'll report live from Downing Street, assess the economic challenges facing the UK's new prime minister, and explore whether 'empathy' can be at the core of a governing philosophy.
Also in the programme: influencer Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan have appeared in court in Miami as they fight extradition to the UK over an investigation into alleged sexual offences. And former Liverpool striker David Fairclough shares his memories of ex-England captain and manager Kevin Keegan, who's died at the age of 75.- Prime Minister-in-waiting, Andy Burnham, takes the helm of the Labour Party and prepares to enter No.10 on Monday. We discuss his plans for social care with former health spokesmen, Liberal Democrat Sir Norman Lamb and Conservative Andrew, Lord Lansley, and ask whether Burnham is right to say Britain went wrong in the 1980s.
Also on the programme: we drop in on tonight's American-themed First Night of the Proms. And remembering the remarkable career of West Indian cricket legend, Sir Garfield Sobers. - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's surprise move to replace popular Defence Minister Mykhailo Fedorov has caused an outburst of anger from civil society and criticism from MPs. We hear reaction from Oleksandr Merezhko, a lawmaker with Mr Zelensky's Servant of the People Party.
Also in the programme: US President Donald Trump is set to address the nation overnight, but not all of the country’s major networks will air it live. And with only 41 cinemas in the world showing Sir Christopher Nolan’s new adaptation of The Odyssey on IMAX 70mm film, what’s the appeal of celluloid over digital projection? - England have suffered FIFA World Cup heartbreak with a late semi-final defeat by Argentina in Atlanta. We hear reaction from the stadium, a fan in the Falkland Islands, and a sports bar in Kent.
Also in the programme: French MPs approve an assisted dying law with strict rules. President Trump's acting attorney general Todd Blanche faces a confirmation hearing to take on the role permanently – but survivors of Jeffrey Epstein have concerns. And why do so many modern novels centre around the story of murdered women? - Sir Keir Starmer and his expected successor as prime minister, Andy Burnham, have claimed a Hillsborough Law will bring a new era of "justice for ordinary people". The legislation, named after the 1989 football stadium disaster, imposes a legal duty on public officials to co-operate with investigations and inquiries. We hear from one of the Hillsborough families, and a journalist who has followed their struggle for justice over decades.
Also in the programme: As the US resumes its blockade of Iran’s ports, we look at how countries in the Middle East are trying to bypass the Strait of Hormuz. And as T-Rex skeleton ‘Gus’ becomes the most expensive dinosaur ever to be sold at auction, we hear from a "dino hunter" in Montana.
