Should the UK recognise Palestine?

As famine spreads in Gaza, the team discuss whether the international community - and particularly the US and the UK - should be taking stronger action against Israel. And they ask: would officially recognising the State of Palestine make any difference to the lives of ordinary Gazans? Amber, Mark, and Marc are joined by the former British Ambassador to the US, Lord Darroch to discuss this, and whether there is still any hope for a two-state solution.
Mark also recalls watching the Jewish settlements being cleared from Gaza in 2005, and wonders how far the peace process has been set back in the time since October 7th 2023. Amber explains why it's politically so difficult for the UK to change its Middle East policy without American support, plus Marc gives his view on Israel's recent airstrikes on Syria.
And the team discuss how badly impacted President Trump will be by the crisis he's facing over The Epstein Files. Will this damage his relationship with the MAGA base for good?
