Summary

A year since Sir Keir Starmer and Labour won a landslide election victory, the team assess the performance and prospects of the other parties. In our weekend edition we ask whether Kemi Badenoch is struggling or turning a corner. More broadly, have the Tories failed to have a proper reckoning with their failures in office? Is Reform getting ready for power? What of the Lib Dems and Greens? And we explore the situation in Scotland and Wales ahead of next year’s devolved elections.

1:13.2

But we move on now into further explanation of this year.

1:18.5

And we're going to look at probably some of the similar issues,

1:21.5

but through the prism of the other parties.

1:24.4

And I'm going to start with you, Ian Martin.

1:27.4

Oh, dear. Isn't Kemi doing well?

1:31.7

Tim is really in a very malicious mood today. I don't know. I'm pleased he's trained as

we've been doing podcast since she became touring.

1:45.1

I'm enjoying your sort of slow adjustment downwards and sort of blood sugar levels because the beginning, I wish, if we had a team behind us, we could have someone edit all the different answers you've given.

1:58.2

In the beginning, they were quite buoyant.

2:00.0

And then we'll do the same for you on Trump.

2:01.9
