	Description:		Today, we look at the prime minister’s pledge to fight “the changing face of terrorism” in light of Britain facing a “new and dangerous threat” from extreme violence. In an address from Downing Street, Sir Keir Starmer announced a public inquiry into the state failure that allowed Axel Rudakubana to fatally stab three young girls in Southport last summer. Plus we discuss President Trump’s first actions back in the White House, including the pardoning of nearly 1,600 people in connection with the Capitol riots on 6th of January 2021, with Caitriona Perry, Chief Presenter for BBC News.
