Yvette Cooper leads talks on Hormuz

PM

Available for 29 days

We are joined by the former ambassador to Iran, Nicholas Hopton, as Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper meets with representatives from 40 nations to discuss a pathway toward reopening the Strait of Hormuz. We also hear testimony from ordinary Iranians suffering under wartime conditions. Also on the programme, ahead of the arrival of Storm Dave, we tell you everything you need to know for your Bank Holiday travels. And we reminisce about the 1969 moon landing as the Artemis II mission begins its journey.
