Looking Ahead to 2025
Jonny Dymond and a panel of the BBC's best correspondents and editors gaze into their crystal balls to predict what news is in store in 2025.
Jonny Dymond asks some of the BBC's best correspondents and editors to gaze into their crystal balls and predict what 2025 might have in store.
If 2024 was the year of elections, then 2025 will be the year the election winners try and deliver on their promises. Among them, British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer - what will Labour's priorities be this year? Also, how will Kemi Badenoch galvanise Conservatives in the face of Reform's growing momentum?
In the US, how will incoming president Donald Trump's second term differ to his first? Will he really follow through on threats to impose trade tariffs?
The panel also give their people and places to watch out for in the next 12 months.
