Mission: Kim Possible – with guest John Rentoul

Did the Batley and Spen result rescue Labour from a death spiral? The Independent’s political commentator John Rentoul joins us to ask whether Starmer really has pulled off a great escape. Meanwhile, as Sajid Javid loudly announces the end of COVID restrictions, will masks become the latest marker of the culture war? And why was that Princess Diana statue so bad?

• “The pandemic has shown up just how minging we were before. Nobody washed their hands!” – Ayesha Hazarika
