In This Episode
Supercharged by a by-election victory in Aberdeen South and Starmer’s resignation, Kemi Badenoch delivered a drive-by at PMQs today. She took aim at members of Starmer’s cabinet in succession: Rachel Reeves, Ed Miliband and Bridget Phillipson. Starmer’s line is that he is handing over the country in a better position than he found it; Badenoch’s is that, if it is all going so well, why is he resigning? She has a point.
She also highlighted the spectacle of many in Starmer’s government posing for a photo with Andy Burnham on his return to Westminster yesterday. The Prime Minister should feel ‘betrayed’, she said. Again, she has a point. Is this Badenoch at her best? And how will she fare against Burnham?
Oscar Edmondson speaks to Isabel Hardman and Noa Hoffman.
