## Resource

Is Britain on the brink of getting its sixth Prime Minister in six years? Keir Starmer's government is in "terminal" tailspin, facing a wave of frontbench resignations after Reform UK seized former Labour heartlands including Gateshead in the local elections. Could Andy Burnham be next in line for the Labour leadership? Columnist Sebastian Payne joins Harry Cole to discuss the "spectacular poetic justice" of Starmer's downfall mirroring Boris Johnson's. Harry Cole Saves The West: From Washington DC comes an unflinching, no-apology show confronting the crises shaking the US and UK - open borders, cultural collapse, economic chaos, and threats to our security. Here, American grit meets British backbone to defend faith, family, freedom, and the future of the West. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
