Step into The Crisis Room. In this first episode, Amber, Mark, and Marc unpack the controversial move by Merseyside Police to reveal key details about the Liverpool incident suspect. Smart transparency, or a risky precedent?

They also dive into the war in Ukraine: has Europe let Ukraine down? Why is Trump so dismissive of the intelligence community? And are world leaders scared of provoking Vladimir Putin?

Amber shares insider stories from her time as Home Secretary during the Skripal poisoning and the Trump years, while Mark and Marc clash over how far the West should go to support Ukraine.
