Levelling Up Secretary, Michael Gove, has unveiled the government’s new “Homes for Ukraine” refugee scheme. Adam is joined by the BBC’s Mark Easton and prospective host, hotel manager Charlie Green to chew over how it will work. We ask the UK’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Dame Barbara Woodward, what it’s like facing the Russians at the Security Council and what role China has to play in the Ukraine conflict. And with food prices predicted to rise by 15% this year, we officially launch Newscast’s basket of goods. Today’s Newscast was made by Tim Walklate, with John Murphy and Ben Cooper. The studio directors were Gareth Jones and Emma Crowe. The assistant editor was Sam Bonham.
