Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg - recappedpublished at 10:18 British Summer Time 27 April
That's it for another week, here's what we heard from our guests:
Kuenssberg asked about the Supreme Court judgement that the legal definition of a woman is based on biological sex, and advice from the equalities watchdog:
- Labour's Pat McFadden says the logical consequence is that people "use the facilities of their biological sex", but says there won't be "toilet police" in Whitehall and he wants everyone to be treated with kindness.
- Lib Dem leader Ed Davey says more guidance is needed as he believes there is still a lot of "confusion" and "anxiety". He also says his party and others have been on a "learning curve".
- Green Party co-leader Carla Denyer says her party is "really worried" about the advice, which she calls "rushed" and "ill thought out"
And ahead of next week's local elections in England:
- Labour's Pat McFadden says his party inherited a "difficult situation" and has had to take some unpopular decisions, but says he will not speculate on the result beforehand
- Conservative shadow housing secretary Kevin Hollinrake said his party needs to correct some of the mistakes it made in government, but rules out any electoral pacts with Reform
- In contrast, Lib Dem leader Ed Davey struck an upbeat tone for his party, saying it is possible his party could become the second biggest in local government
- On the panel, both Labour Mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham and Tory Tees Valley mayor Ben Houchen said it could be a difficult election for their parties
- But Green Party co-leader Carla Denyer says she is pretty confident her party will increase their vote share, claiming people feel let down by the two biggest parties
And Tory Hollinrake also told the programme he would bet his mortgage on Kemi Badenoch still being party leader at the next general election, despite speculation she could be replaced before then.
