## Resource

Hugo Rifkind unpacks the politics of the day with Seb Payne and Janice Turner.  Are Andy Burnham's plans for government really ready? Do voters think Nigel Farage has behaved incorrectly over undeclared  gifts? And is Labour's woman problem worse than it realises? You can hear more of Hugo on Times Radio from Monday to Thursday, 10am-1pm. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
