Oct 7, 2024
Katy Balls, Political editor at The Spectator, teams up with John McTernan, a former political secretary to Tony Blair, to dissect the political chaos in Downing Street following Sue Gray's resignation. They discuss the power shift towards Morgan McSweeney and the implications for Keir Starmer's leadership. The duo reflects on past dysfunction in government, the Labour Party's internal dynamics, and the toll of fiscal constraints on effective policy-making. They also ponder whether this shake-up can truly reset Starmer’s agenda.
