Angela Rayner's next move and Morgan McSweeney's missing messages

Published 6 months ago
Description
  • We reveal what happened when Morgan McSweeney lost his phone, and what it means for the Mandelson files.
  • As Angela Rayner looks like she's preparing to challenge Keir Starmer, other senior Labour MPs are jostling for position.
  • What is the government willing and able to do to help in the Strait of Hormuz? Spoiler: not much.
  • And as the questions about Britain's economy and place in the world get harder, are fewer Labour politicians interested in asking, let alone answering, them?
