Summary

We’re live in Liverpool on Mon 23 Sept for Labour’s first conference in government. Join Dorian Lynskey, Raf Behr, Jonn Elledge and a special guest TBA at the Laughterhouse – tickets here. The Tory bust up over who should be the party’s next leader is underway. Who is in the running, what do they want and is there a least worst option? Plus, Green Party co-leader Carla Denyer tells Andrew Harrison what her party wants to achieve in Parliament and gives her take on Labour’s green platform. And Angela Rayner announced reforms to housing and planning laws this week. What did she say – and is any of it realistic? In the Extra Bit for subscribers, should most politicians stick to the real world rather than push content they're not good at to an online audience? • We are releasing an extended version of the Carla Denyer interview on this channel. • We’re on YouTube!: https://www.youtube.com/@ohgodwhatnow Support us on Patreon. Presented by Jacob Jarvis, with Hannah Fearn, Jonn Elledge and Rachel Cunliffe. Producer: Chris Jones. Audio production by: Jade Bailey. Managing Editor: Jacob Jarvis.
