    Can Netanyahu cling on? Inside Israel’s election deadlock

    2026/10/31 | 20 mins.
    In this Saturday edition of Coffee House Shots, James Heale is joined by Noa Hoffman, who has been reporting on the election from Israel, and former Foreign Office special adviser Ben Judah to unpack the results.

    They discuss the historic turnout among Arab Israeli voters, the growing influence of ultra-Orthodox parties and why, despite the failures of October 7, Netanyahu continues to command support.

    Plus: could an unlikely alliance between Jewish and Arab parties reshape Israeli politics?

    Produced by Abigail Brierley

    The OBR's verdict on Healey

    2026/10/30 | 27 mins.
    John Healey’s budget on Wednesday contained 98 measures, the most since 2010, and yet the OBR appears to be questioning the extent of his £15 billion in headroom. Tim Shipman speaks to the OBR’s David Miles about a tax take heading for a post-war high, the cuts pencilled in for the end of the parliament, and why, by his reckoning, Britain is 25% poorer than it expected to be in 2008.
