It has been a big week in politics, as the Conservatives assembled for (probably) their last party conference before a General Election. Co-hosts Charlotte Henry and Emma Burnell discuss everything that happened in Manchester, including the HS2 shambles and increasing concerns over disinformation and lies. 



Attention now turns to Labour, who have picked up a very important by-election victory in Scotland and will head to Liverpool on a high. After the result in Rutherglen, the path to Downing Street for Sir Keir Starmer now seems more open than ever.
