Summary

What a week it's been. Since the last episode, Theresa May has resigned as leader of the Conservatives, her party was thumped in the European Parliament elections in which Nigel Farage's Brexit Party came out on top, Labour has indicated a shift in position over a second EU referendum and the list of candidates to succeed Mrs May as Prime Minister has jumped into double figures. Plenty to assess then as host Adam Boulton is joined by the head of politics at City AM Owen Bennett, visiting research fellow at the London School of Economics Sophia Gaston, Sky's political reporter Aubrey Allegretti and the head of Sky Data Harry Carr.
