Episode description

Labour is in disarray since Angela Rayner’s resignation, even as the Prime Minister tries to seize back the narrative by reshuffling his Cabinet. Tim and Camilla are joined by Jacob Rees-Mogg to assess the refreshed front bench.


Meanwhile Keir Starmer is being held to ransom by the unions, with striking Tube drivers demanding fewer hours for the same pay. Rees-Mogg says: “fire the lot of them”.


Plus, the BBC’s director general and chair are set to be grilled by MPs on Tuesday over Gaza, Glastonbury and MasterChef. Tim and Camilla speak to culture committee chair Caroline Dinenage.
