Keir Starmer made his first major speech as prime minister this week, before jetting off to Europe to begin the process of resetting our relationship with the EU. He and the government have clearly laid out the challenges the country faces. But does it have the solutions?
Things can only get worse hardly sounds like a rallying cry for a new government. However, that is the likely message we will hear from the prime minister in a major speech this week.
Is Labour’s honeymoon period over already?
What should the government do to tackle this wave of extreme right wing inspired disruption?
The end of July used to be known as the silly season in politics, as everyone would head off on their holidays, but unlike Frank McKenna who continues to be away in Greece, Jim Hancock and Jo Phillips have a packed agenda to discuss.
Jim Hancock and Jo Phillips discuss the latest dramatic developments in the race for the White House, the first row of the new Labour government over the 2 child benefit limit, the weighty King’s speech in general and will the Tories go long or short in the search for a new leader?
The new Labour government has hit the ground running.
Today we unpack the general election results from Thursday evening. Friday morning, focusing on the smaller parties.

Not long left in this General Election campaign and we are beside ourselves with excitement, as change seems inevitable and we prepare to welcome a Labour government. Well, hardly.
