• How do you know you've chosen a good care home?

  A Sky News investigation has discovered elderly people in care homes across the country are being left unwashed in soiled sheets, unable to reach food and water, and suffering falls when left alone. The investigation also uncovered huge problems with how concerns about care homes are investigated – and the way these homes are rated by the Care Quality Commission. On this episode, Niall Paterson speaks to social affairs correspondent Becky Johnson, who explains the issue of neglect at care homes and explores whether the system designed to support better care is broken. Producer: Alex Bishop  Editor: Philly Beaumont

• How does Starmer keep Trump’s US and the EU sweet?

  After having introduced trade tariffs on Canada and Mexico over the weekend, President Donald Trump is now threatening import taxes on EU goods.

• Trump: Making Tariffs Interesting Again, with Ed Conway

  “Tariffs is the most beautiful word to me in the dictionary,” said Donald Trump during his second inauguration as US president, alongside God, religion, and love.  This weekend, Trump hopes to follow through on his threat to hit imports, starting with a 25% border tax rate on Canada and Mexico. But some worry that the protectionist trade policies, new tariffs and retaliatory measures by other nations could slow economic growth in the US, spur inflation, and trigger a trade war.   Niall is joined by Ed Conway, our economics and data editor, to unpick why Trump loves tariffs, what he hopes to achieve with them, and how likely a trade-war is.  Producer: Natalie Ktena Editor: Paul Stanworth

• Heathrow Airport: The case for and against a third runway

  Rachel Reeves has backed a third runway at Heathrow as a key part of her economic growth strategy, saying the expansion of Europe’s busiest airport was “badly needed”. But it will very likely face opposition from environmental campaigners and local residents, which could hold up work on a third runway for years.   On this episode, Niall Paterson is joined by Sky’s business correspondent, Paul Kelso, and science and technology editor, Tom Clarke, to look at the pros and cons of the airport’s expansion - from how much it would add to the UK economy, to how it squares with the UK’s net zero targets.  Producer: Natalie Ktena, Alex Bishop Editor: Wendy Parker
