Is Trump’s Board of Peace just a power play?

Thu, 22 Jan 2026

In the same month he ordered strikes on Venezuela and threatened to seize Greenland, Donald Trump has been inviting countries to join his "Board of Peace".

The US president and disruptor-in-chief has pitched the board as a mechanism to rebuild Gaza - yet its charter does not even mention the territory.

Russia has been invited, while still waging war on Ukraine – so what is this so-called Board of Peace? Can it achieve a lasting solution for Palestine? And is Trump trying to replace the United Nations?

Niall is joined by Sky’s Middle East correspondent, Adam Parsons.

Is a social media ban workable?

Wed, 21 Jan 2026

Teenagers generally hate being told what to do – as any parent who’s tried getting them off their phones can testify.

The government is now considering a social media ban on children under 16 – but the move has had mixed reviews since its introduction in Australia. What lessons can be learned over here?

Would teenagers simply find a way around the ban? And is there a better way to keep children safe online?

Jonathan Samuels is joined by Sky’s tech reporter Mickey Carroll.

Gareth Barlow speaks to Sky's business and economics correspondent Paul Kelso from the heart of the action in Davos.

Has Trump and Starmer’s 'special relationship' turned toxic?

Mon, 19 Jan 2026

Is Donald Trump's threat to impose more tariffs on countries trying to block his plan to buy Greenland the last straw for the strained relationship with the UK?

Sir Keir Starmer is walking a diplomatic tightrope - on the one hand rebuking the president for his threats, while on the other reiterating the UK and US remain the closest of allies.

But could this mark a point of no return for the man once described as the 'Trump whisperer'?

Niall speaks to the UK's first national security adviser, Lord Ricketts, about the history of the alliance between the UK and the US and whether Sir Keir can successfully keep it intact, at this delicate moment in history.

Prince Harry vs The Daily Mail: What can we expect in court?

Sun, 18 Jan 2026

Bonus Episode: Prince Harry's final showdown with the British media is due to start this week. The duke is set to give evidence in court on Thursday in his case against the Daily Mail publishers.

Harry, alongside a group of claimants including Sir Elton John, Liz Hurley and Baroness Lawrence, has accused Associated Newspapers Limited of hiring private detectives to place listening devices inside cars and of accessing private records and phone conversations.

Associated Newspapers denies all the allegations, calling them "preposterous smears".

What does this case mean for his stated aim of cleaning up the British press? And how will it further affect his relationship with the rest of the royal family?

Niall speaks to Sky correspondents Laura Bundock and Katie Spencer, who will be covering the case.
