We read the papers so you don’t have to. Today: Sunak’s bad day. You go on ONE goodwill tour to the Middle East… Next thing Labour win two historic byelections AND the papers are calling you Dr Death. It’s SO unfair. Plus, Y’all love Americans! We’re all looking for dates from the States (apparently) and the Times knows why. And The perfect crime. Would YOU pretend to be a mannequin to rob a shop? This Polish bloke did. And the tabloids love it. 

Miranda Sawyer is joined by Guardian political sketchwriter John Crace and comedy writer Fergus Craig.
