Poppy Coburn and Michael Deacon discuss Donald Trump’s new press secretary, Katie Zacharia, whose awkward first briefing saw her mistakenly refer to the president as her husband, and Trump’s controversial AI videos.

They also cover Andy Burnham’s claims of Russian interference in Brexit, Gordon Brown’s alleged attendance at an exorcism, Tom Cruise’s box-office flop Digger and Oxford University’s language guidance.
