23:15Now PlayingIn a clip from today's podcast, Ava and Andy take to the PolJOE sofa to unpack last week's political chaos, from Wes Streeting's sustained meddling to Mayor Burnham's prospects in the upcoming Makerfield by-election.
The pair unpack the strategic dilemmas facing Labour, from internal tensions to campaign positioning, and whether Burnham represents a genuine shift or more of the same.
With the Greens confirming they’ll stand a candidate, will the left vote be split, and could that inadvertently hand victory to Reform UK? Figures like Caroline Lucas have already warned against prioritising party politics over the bigger picture.
