What The King Did (And Didn’t) Say To Trump

Today, the King and Queen head to New York for the second part of their state visit to the US. We look at King Charles’ address to congress, what he said… and didn’t say, and if any of it is likely to have a lasting impact on US-UK relations. Adam is joined in the studio our diplomatic correspondent James Landale, and by Daniela Relph, senior royal correspondent who’s in New York with the King and Queen. Plus, business editor Simon Jack tells Adam why some big players in the world of finance are worried that another financial crash might be on the horizon. They point to similarities between now and the lead up to 2008, which they say paired with the ongoing geopolitical turbulence and the AI bubble, could be a recipe for disaster.
