The New Statesman’s business editor Will Dunn sat down with Torsten Bell, Labour MP for Swansea West, and former chief executive of the Resolution Foundation - a think tank which aims to improve the standard of living of low-to-middle income families.

Torsten Bell also worked as Labour’s Director of Policy under Ed Milliband’s leadership.

His first book Great Britain?: How We Get Our Future Back, was published earlier this year.
