YouTube Description

"Labour has seen for a long time that Keir starmer is not cable of leading them."

Even if Starmer manages to "turn it around", there are still questions over whether his own party wants him to lead, says former Downing Street director of communications under Boris Johnson, Guto Harri.

Guto Harri and Sonia Sodha were speaking to Calum Macdonald and Kait Borsay on Times Radio Weekend Breakfast. Listen live every Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 6-10am.
