Reset, reshuffle, or a total rethink of government. What does Kirstama's administration look like today

and what do all the recent personnel changes mean for where it goes next? I'm Hannah White and this is

Inside Briefing, the podcast from

the Institute for Government. Kirstama has a new team in place with ministers hastily moved around

following Angela Rainer's dramatic departure from the cabinet. And at the same time,

IFG researchers have been hastily assembled to bring you our essential IFG reshuffle live blog. We've been

crunching numbers, building charts, trawling through the history books. So sit back as we give

you the official lowdown on the reshuffled ranks of government. Rainer's exit centered around

the standards of behaviour expected from ministers, just the type of thing that the former

deputy prime minister used to shout about in opposition when a series of Conservative ministers

found their own behaviour called into question. And she's not alone in exiting a big job this

week. Peter Mandelson, Lord Mandelson, is out of a job again. So what does this all say about

Kirstama's judgment in making appointments?

Has he done enough to strengthen the rules around ethics and what future headaches are looming?

We will take a look. With me throughout is IFG Senior Fellow and Reshuffle Veteran, it says here,

Jill Rutter. No more than most anyway. Hello, Anna. Jill promises that she hasn't been completely distracted by the US Open this week.

Could I just say, I didn't promise that.

I said I had been totally distracted by the US Open this week.

Well, we'll hope you that you've covered at least some of what's been happening in government as well.

And I am delighted that we are joined again by Kat Neelan Whitehall editor at The Observer. Hi, Kat.

Hello, thank you for having me on. You're stuck somewhere because of the tube strike.

I am, yes, and the need to be sort of near to school to make sure I can pick the kids up.
