Alan and Lionel are joined by special guest Lisa Nandy, secretary of state for Culture, Media and Sport.
Lisa responds to Elon Musk’s allegations that free speech is being muzzled in Britain.
The editors also challenge her on the government refusing to sanction GB News, despite its political motivations.
They also discuss the future of the BBC, trust in the media, and the UK’s decision to regulate US big tech, in the face of tariff threats from Trump.
