Summary

Andy Burnham is the de-facto prime minister - has the Labour Party left the country in stasis while we wait for him to arrive in Downing Street? And why is an immigration minister arguing in public with the home secretary, and not getting the sack?  Ed Vaizey unpacks the politics of the day with Alys Denby and Michael Binyon. You can hear more of Ed on Times Radio every Friday, 10am-1pm Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
