French Election Shock, NATO Descends on D.C.

Tommy and Ben discuss the surprising French election results and debate whether Macron's decision to call early elections was a success or failure, the Labour landslide in the UK, and how American politics loom large at this year's NATO summit in Washington, DC. They also talk about the election of reformist Masoud Pezeshkian in Iran and how a new president could change relations with the West, the latest on negotiations to end the war in Gaza, what to expect from Bibi Netanyahu's address to Congress, and why you should wear a poncho if you're planning on visiting Barcelona. Then, Ben speaks to Coco Khan and Nish Kumar of Pod Save the UK about last week's elections.
