Who will be the UK's next prime minister?

A review of the week with the latest news.

The two contenders to become the UK's next PM face questions about their cost-of-living policies - a day before the result of the Tory leadership contest. Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak will be asked about their proposals to solve pressing issues, including mounting energy bills.

Also in the programme: The United States is sending a special envoy to Ethiopia to urge an end to renewed fighting in the Tigray region; and NASA says it will be several weeks before it makes another attempt to launch the Artemis Moon rocket -- after blast-off was aborted for a second time.

Joining Paul Henley to discuss these and other issues are Mily Taylor, chief executive of Oxford Information Labs, a UK-based cyber intelligence company, and Han Dorussen, professor of government at the University of Essex in southern England.
