About this episode

Ed Miliband - REPLAY


Ed Miliband is one of the most powerful politicians in the country.

But in 2018 he was in a very different place.

Three years after his emotional resignation as leader, he was rebuilding his political career in the middle of the Corbyn era. 

This is a fascinating interview from The Political Party back catalogue.

13 August: Joanna Cherry

15 August: Sadiq Khan
