Are Labour the party to finally fix housing? w/ Kwajo Tweneboa, Toby Lloyd and Sam Freedman

It’s week one in government and Labour have hit the ground running. We’ve got a new cabinet and big moves on planning reform and international relations are underway. But what about the opposition? Nish and Coco check in with Substack superstar Sam Freedman to uncover some of the challenges the new government faces over the course of the parliament and hear who might lead a new-look Conservative Party.

Later, Kwajo Tweneboa and Toby Lloyd drop in to chew over one of the prickliest issues the UK needs to deal with - housing. From social housing, to affordability, to no-fault evictions, we cover off the biggest challenges the government faces.

Finally, things get weird when Coco declares a “Red Ed Summer” as TikTokers thirst over the new energy secretary.

Labour and SNP Draw Level

New polling by Survation for True North (Geoff's Strategic Advisory firm) is out - how does it compare to what Humza Yousaf told us on last week's live podcast? We listen back to some of his answers and compare them to the polling which suggests the SNP and Labour are neck-and-neck on seat projections at the general election. Plus, we reveal the details of Geoff and Andy's election bets; and answer some of your questions. Also we look at Sir Tom Hunter's calls for changes on tax - does it feed into current political conversation in Scotland?

Lords, Ladies, and Boris Johnson's honour

Rishi Sunak has reportedly waved through Boris Johnson's controversial and much-talked about honours list. Why? And what does this mean at the slightly grubbier end of British politics.

Caroline Lucas is to step down from Parliament after 13 years of flying the Green Party flag. Is the beginning of a rebirth in left-wing politics, or is it more like the beginning of the end?

And how does the newspaper industry cover Prince Harry when they’re part of the trial?
