As Keir Starmer casts Jeremy Corbyn out, the panel discusses what this means for the Labour Party, its former leader and wider politics. Could this set a new model for influential but independent MPs? Then – have you seen your gas bill yet? We unpack the latest in the energy cost crisis, as people suffer despite booming profits for providers. Plus – what Government departments would our team like to take over – would they copy Sunak and make any new ones? 

“It’s really bad for a party to become a cult around one figure, I hope Corbyn and his fans see that.” – Ayesha Hazarika 

“For Jeremy Corbyn, he had all of the power within the party, he couldn’t convert that into power within the country.” – Ayesha Hazarika

“If you have to spend so much time exposing the endless screw ups of our current leaders, when do you get a chance to talk about what you want to talk about?” – Hannah Fearn
