You wait five years for an interview with a Labour leader and then two come along in the space of a few weeks!

Sir Keir Starmer joins Christopher Hope for his first Chopper's Politics as the Leader of the Opposition. He tells us why he thinks the government needs to work with unions and parents ahead of reopening schools, how a half-empty PMQs works to his advantage, and why Labour shouldn't be shy about being patriotic.

Oh, and how we should all call him Keir - less of the 'Sir'.
