Who is on this week's Sunday With Laura Kuenssberg show - see full list of guests

LAURA Kuenssberg will once again be joined by a variety of guests on her BBC show on Sunday morning.

This week's show comes after a week dominated by the US presidential result as UK politicians lined up to congratulate Donald Trump on his win in a bid to appease diplomatic relations with fears tariffs will be reimposed.

Here’s all you need to know about who’s appearing on the show and how you can watch the programme.

How to watch

Sunday With Laura Kuenssberg will be live on BBC One and BBC iPlayer from 9am on Sunday morning.

Here’s who will be appearing on the show.

Tony Radakin

According to the BBC’s schedule chief of the defence staff Admiral Tony Radakin will be on the show.

Radakin told the BBC on Sunday that the Russian people were paying an “extraordinary price” for Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion, saying that October was the worst month for losses since the conflict began in February 2022.

Russian forces suffered an average of around 1500 dead and injured per day in Ukraine last month, according to the UK’s chief of defence staff.

Darren Jones

Chief Secretary to the Treasury and Labour MP for Bristol North West Darren Jones will also be on the programme.

He will likely face questions from Kuenssberg around the UK Budget which was announced two weeks ago. Jones also made the headlines this week as he said he will abstain or vote against a proposed change in the law that could legalise assisted dying.

Priti Patel

The hardcore Brexiteer was sacked by Theresa May as international development secretary for unauthorised meetings in Israel back in November 2017.

Kristen Michal

The Estonian Prime Minister Kristen Michal will be on the Sunday show and will be likely talking about the European Union.

He is a member of the Reform Party and succeeded Kaja Kallas, who was the country’s first female prime minister and resigned ahead of her likely appointment as the EU’s High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy.

Damian Lewis

Actor, musician and producer Damian Lewis rounds off the list of guests.

Best known for his role in Band of Brothers and the series Homeland he’s been promoting his latest film Wolf Hall.

Editor and author Tina Brown, Peter Mandelson, and historian Andrew Roberts will also join the panel.
