Good morning and welcome to our live stream of this week’s edition of Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg.

Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy will be in the hot seat this morning fielding questions on the upcoming Budget as Chancellor Rachel Reeves comes under increasing pressure over her refusal to rule out she’ll be announcing tax rises.

Nandy has come under fire herself after she was found to have “unknowingly” breached the rules by naming sports rights executive David Kogan as the government’s preferred choice for England’s new football watchdog – only to later stand back after establishing he had donated to her leadership campaign in 2020.

Also joining Kuenssberg today are shadow defence secretary James Cartlidge and Chief of the Defence Staff Sir Richard Knighton. On the panel are broadcaster Susanna Reid, sociologist Gina Neff and Springwatch presenter Chris Packham.

The programme will also broadcast an interview with Megan Garcia, a Florida woman currently suing chatbox app Character.ai over the death of her teenage son.
