Summary
The news agenda may be dominated by Olly Robbins’ highly-anticipated evidence session to MPs on the Mandelson scandal – but is an even more significant story unfolding elsewhere? Cabinet ministers and other senior Labour figures (but not the Prime Minister) will gather at a key conference – setting out competing visions on growth, energy security and economic policy. Are they positioning themselves for a future without Keir Starmer? Sam and Anne assess what Labour grandees can do to revive the party’s public standing and define what happens next. Plus, the duo have their weekly check-in on the state of the polls, and wonder whether the Mandelson saga has had an impact.
