    Trump rolls back key US climate regulation

    2026-2-12 | 37 min.
    President Trump has repealed a key government scientific finding that carbon emissions endanger human health. The so-called “endangerment finding” of 2009 was the legal bedrock of efforts to rein in emissions and critics fear it is a major setback in the fight against climate change.
    Also on the programme: Sir Jim Ratcliffe has apologised for "offending some people" with his language after saying the UK had been "colonised by immigrants". We discuss the importance of the language we use in politics.
    And as the Berlin Film Festival opens, we speak to the director of one of the entrants, a rom-com set in Kabul.

    US Attorney General faces questions over Epstein investigation

    2026-2-11 | 37 min.
    US Attorney General Pam Bondi has been defending her department's handling of the release of millions of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein.

Meanwhile, the former prime minister, Gordon Brown, has called for detectives to interview Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor about allegations that Jeffrey Epstein trafficked women and girls through the UK. The former Prince Andrew has denied any wrongdoing - or that he derived any benefit - from his association with Jeffrey Epstein.
    Also in the programme: the UK Supreme Court rules the plant-based drink maker Oatly cannot use the word "milk" in its marketing; and how the latest Hollywood remake of Wuthering Heights is going down in the birthplace of its author Emily Brontë.
