How The Energy Shock Helps Starmer Survive
About this episode
The episode discusses how the energy shock impacts political strategies and voter engagement amidst rising living costs.
There's an arms race under way as the parties make competing offers to help with the rising cost of living. Is anyone cutting through to the voters? And as Keir Starmer's rivals consider whether to move against him after May's elections, Danny argues that the looming economic crisis makes it a bad time for them to act. We also find out why Sally introduced 'garish posters and loud music' to Downing Street, and Polly holds forth about barbecues.
