Nancy Pelosi Sparks Diplomatic Row in Taiwan, Liz Truss in Humiliating U-Turn

Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan has intensified tensions between the US and China, but what does it mean for Taiwan itself? We speak to Brian Hioe of New Bloom magazine.

Plus: Liz Truss performs a humiliating U-turn and offends the nation of Scotland; Sunak announces a barmy ‘extremism’ policy; and an Australian senator gets rebuked for calling the Queen a coloniser.

With Michael Walker and Dalia Gebrial.
