Episode How Reform and the Tories plan to fight Andy Burnham
In the magazine this week, James Heale writes that Kemi Badenoch was in an upbeat mood when she addressed her troops last week. ‘This time last year,’ she told the 1922 Committee, ‘people said Jenrick was taking over the party, Starmer was steady and Farage would be the next prime minister. A year later, Rob is under police investigation, Starmer has resigned and Farage is not even an MP.’
It is a reminder of how quickly the wheel of politics can turn. So what is Badenoch’s grand plan for taking on Burnham?
Also today, No. 10 North is officially open for business – but has anyone really thought it through?
Noa Hoffman speaks to Tim Shipman and James Heale.
