Today, Adam and Chris takeover the Listening Post at Latitude Festival in Henham Park to discuss the day’s news in front of a live audience. The government is under pressure as resident doctors begin a five-day strike in England after failing to reach an agreement over pay. The Prime Minister Keir Starmer has urged them not to follow their union down a “damaging road”. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump is arriving in Scotland for a five-day private visit where he will meet with the Prime Minister in Aberdeen. Adam and Chris discuss what might be on the agenda. And, Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana have officially launched a new party. As politics continues to splinter — what impact might this have on the broader political landscape? Adam and Chris are joined by BBC legend Martha Kearney, who presents This Natural Life on Radio 4 after leaving the Today programme last year. She tells them about her life after news, or as she calls it — as “a recovering news addict.” You can now listen to Newscast on a smart speaker.

  • BBC Sounds. Music, radio, podcasts.

  • Chris, we're in a big tent at the Latitude Festival in Suffolk.

  • It's extraordinary.

  • Oh!

  • We're in a big tent, it's not raining, and the tent is actually full.

  • Full.

  • Because I've not been to Latitude before and there's lots of sources of entertainment I've discovered in merely the first few hours of me being here.

  • And therefore you can't help but fear as you walk around.

  • In fact my children were teasing me about this exact prospect that maybe no one will turn up.

  • And it turns out people have.

  • Yeah so thank you very much to everyone who's here.

  • Before we dive into Newscast proper and the news I thought we'd just do a little bit of A Latitude cast, first of all.

  • So there's a lot of people for you to see here this weekend.

  • Who's excited to see Sting?

  • Chris, did you hear you react there?

  • I'm looking forward to Scouting for Girls, who are on Not Long After Us.

  • OK. And we've got Scouting for Girls fans.

  • We'll make sure we're finished by then.

  • Does anyone know the performer who is performing this weekend, who's a singer, who's been on newscast?

  • No, not Billy Bragg, no. Although he's welcome to come on.
