Summary

Want to know what an MP eats on a hangover? This week we chat with Labour MP and political superstar in the making - Wes Streeting, who was kind enough to be interviewed on a Sunday morning, even after a night out on the tiles for a friend’s wedding. Wes is the current shadow health secretary and alongside Keir Starmer, has been instrumental in transforming the Labour Party into election-winning hopefuls for 2024. It's a refreshingly frank and honest chat from a politician and Wes leaves no questions unanswered. Plus, what is the best gay wedding entrance of all time, and would Jesus go on a Pride March? Tune in to find out!
