Tonight with Andrew Marr

Shapps Warns World Is In Pre-War Phase

The Defence Secretary has warned that the world is in a pre-war phase - that conflict could erupt within 5 years between the West on one side and China, Iran and North Korea on the other. The warning comes days after the UK and US hit Houthi targets in Yemen in response to attacks on commercial shipping in the Red Sea. Are we at risk of a wider war? Defence Procurement Minister James Cartlidge MP &amp; Dr. Richard Haass President Emeritus at the Council for Foreign Relations join the programme. The Labour MP Jess Phillips discusses the latest revelations about the failures of Greater Manchester Police in responding to and handling off the child sexual offences in the Greater Manchester Area. And Sir Tim Martin, Chairman of Wetherspoons on why he thinks Dry January is becoming a cult.
