Broadcast overview
An AI-generated overview based on this broadcast's transcript.
The 8pm bulletin led on Donald Trump saying it was time for Ukraine to get a new president after Volodymyr Zelensky criticised a US diesel deal with Russia; Zelensky warned that releasing millions of tons of Russian diesel into the US would fund Moscow's war, while Trump said Zelensky was making problems by continuing attacks on Russian refineries and confirmed an agreement suspending sanctions on Russian diesel exports until 7 April. It also reported that a man had died after entering an enclosure and being attacked by a tiger at Yorkshire Wildlife Park, that US death row inmate Christa Pike had been discharged from hospital after a botched execution and returned to prison, and that several arrests were made at a pro-Palestine protest in London over alleged damage to a Battle of Britain war memorial and alleged support for Palestine Action.
The programme then debated whether to scrap net zero, covering economic growth, British jobs, cost of living, energy security, grid capacity, and the UK's share of global emissions, along with figures cited for net zero-related employment, investment, and infrastructure. In a later high-fives segment it paid tribute to the late Jeffrey Archer as a remarkable storyteller and political figure, noting his writing career, controversies, marriage, and death at 86.
A later segment returned to Trump and Ukraine, reporting his deal to import Russian diesel into the US, Putin's agreement to release 300,000 tons immediately and millions more later, and Trump's call for a new Ukrainian president. It included an interview with US foreign policy expert Dr Jack Clayton on US-European strategic divergence, Trump's approach to Russia and China, the risk of Ukrainian attacks on Russian refineries, Europe's limited military capacity, and possible US disengagement, followed by panel discussion of domestic fuel prices and midterm politics.

Charged quote Trump suggests Ukraine needs new president after US-Russia diesel deal
