BBC Radio 4 - The Week in Westminster, 25/11/2023

Ben Riley-Smith of The Telegraph and guests look back at the political week.

Looking back on a packed political week, including the Autumn statement, new migration figures and row over un-parliamentary language.

Ben Riley-Smith and guests look back on a week in which the general election battle lines became clearer.  Did the Chancellor's Autumn Statement give with one hand to take away with another? Are the UK's net migration figures unsustainably high? How are the main parties selecting candidates for the next election? And what's the point of state visits?

Producer: Leala Padmanabhan

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
