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.
Rachel Reeves
According to the BBC’s schedule the Chancellor of the Exchequer will be on the show to discuss her announced UK Budget this week.
She has already defended her decision to raise taxes this week and has insisted her plan provided the stability needed to secure growth.
However, she has laid out a Budget which will see the tax burden reach a historic high, while borrowing increases by an average of £32.3 billion a year.
Kemi Badenoch
The new leader of the Conservative Party will also be on the Sunday morning show.
The MP for North West Essex beat Robert Jenrick after a three-month-long leadership contest to replace Rishi Sunak.
She’s likely to face questions from host Kuenssberg about how she plans to lead her party back from a humiliating defeat at the last General Election.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
