Yesterday was the last episode of the current run of Radio 4’s The Briefing Room. Only nine episodes but felt like we covered a lot. If you want to listen to @davidsonofaaron.bsky.social and guests talking about Iran, immigration, social care, Gen Z and lots more…listen on BBC Sounds now

Want to give a shout-out to one of the BBC's most consistently excellent radio shows, @davidsonofaaron.bsky.social's "The Briefing Room". Today I caught up with a fab two-parter on immigration featuring @msumption.bsky.social, @bbcdomc.bsky.social and @robfordmancs.bsky.social. Do give it a listen.
