In the room with Sunak and Musk

The latest evidence to the Covid Inquiry included the revelation that the former health secretary Matt Hancock wanted to decide “who should live or die” in the event of the NHS becoming overwhelmed. That was the testimony given by Sir Simon Stevens, who led NHS England until 2021.

Laura Kuenssberg joins Adam to give her own reflections as the BBC’s political editor during the period as well as an assessment of the evidence we’ve heard this week.
