Thirteen years of Conservative rule have upended one of the oldest political clichés in the book: that people become more right-wing as they mature. Director of the think tank Onward Sebastian Payne explains why, and confirms that he is standing to be Selby’s next Conservative MP. Plus, UK government editor Stuart Biggs unpacks the row brewing around former prime minister Boris Johnson’s WhatsApp messages and whether they will be handed over to the official Covid inquiry. Hosted by Stephen Carroll and Lizzy Burden.
