Fantasy Cabinet Bingo

This week we saw the publication of the long-awaited Programme for Government. Now, all eyes turn to the jockeying for position with Cabinet Ministers. This week on Taking Stock Mandy Johnston talks Kevin Doyle and Daniel McConnell about who is likely to get what. As we prepare for Trump 2.0 Mandy is joined by Adam Gabbatt of the Guardian to give us his assessment of what we know so far and what the world can expect from the second coming. Plus, over in the UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves is accused of refusing to 'face up to her own failures' amid market turmoil. Mandy talks to Lucy Fisher of the Financial Times.
