King delivers historic address to US Congress

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

King Charles III made explicit reference to some areas of transatlantic disagreement - including on NATO and Ukraine. We hear reaction from a Republican Congressman. Also on the programme: the PM has avoided a parliamentary investigation into what he told MPs about Peter Mandelson's appointment after his former chief of staff publicly took the blame for the decision. And with jet fuel shortages continuing, when should you book your summer holiday?
