Episode description
Crack open a tin of M&S cocktails and hop aboard the love train, because this week we’re diving into a political pairing that’s had more ups and downs than the Spring statement. Yes, it’s the low-key, long-rumoured, and quietly history-making relationship between Jeremy Corbyn and Diane Abbott. Joining Gráinne Maguire and Chantal Feduchin-Pate to unpack it all is journalist and political power house Jonn Elledge.
