Today, Laura and Paddy unpack what the government will do to deal with energy pressures caused by the Iran war. Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson has told Laura that the UK should invest in home-grown energy, but leader of the opposition, Kemi Badenoch, says we need more drilling in the North Sea. And they also discuss the policies on energy prices from other UK political parties.

  • Paddy, you're wearing a rather lovely tie.

  • I put a tie on because Kemi Badenot came into the studio and you 're always very well dressed and I thought I should,

  • for a party leader.

  • You should dress up.

  • Oh.

  • Now, I 've had spies who watched your programme tell me that you 've stolen one of my questions

  • and put it to the leader of the opposition.

  • Like a terrible magpie.

  • Let's have a listen.

  • Who would you support?

  • So LizTrust paid everybody's energy bill when there was the last energy shock around the war in Ukraine,

  • costing tens of billions to the taxpayer.

  • Who would get support if you were in China?

  • I did.

  • It's a shiny.

  • Well, it's a great phrase.

  • You use it all the time.

  • I use it about you.

  • The argument is shifting this time, isn't it?

  • You've raised this.
