NHS league tables and Blairites in government. Is history repeating itself?

Subscribe on YouTube

Wes Streeting has announced plans to create hospital league tables, a policy last attempted 20 years ago by the Blair government.

As Andrew Marr and George Eaton explain, this should perhaps come as no surprise since Keir Starmer is increasingly bringing members of Tony Blair's team back into government.

Andrew Marr and George Eaton join Hannah Barnes on the New Statesman podcast.
