The Prime Minister just told me any party leader should want to get to the bottom of this Russian bribery scandal with Reform.

Today the Government had the opportunity to end the cost of living crisis, get Britain growing again and repair the £90bn Brexit black hole - by fixing our trade with Europe.
It didn't.
