About this episode
Adam Boulton and guests reflect on Labour's conference in Brighton where Sir Keir Starmer had to overcome internal rows and a resignation before making his pitch to the party and the country in his first 'in person' speech as leader.

And with the perfect storm of a supply chain problem, the end of the furlough scheme, the universal credit cut, and a cost of living crisis we'll look ahead to the Conservative gathering in Manchester and how the governing party plans to respond.

Joining Adam this week, the Assistant Editor at The Spectator Isabel Hardman, former government minister and Conservative MP Alistair Burt and Sky's chief political correspondent Jon Craig.
