YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

“If he had in fact published a Burnham-ism manifesto of 20,000 words … everyone would be saying, this is really boring.”

As Andy Burnham readies to be crowned Labour leader and enter No 10, Hugo, Danny, Polly and Sally discuss his first speech to the nation, and who he should appoint as chancellor to help him take the country in the direction he wants.

How To Win An Election is hosted by Hugo Rifkind with Daniel Finkelstein, Sally Morgan, and Polly Mackenzie. Listen wherever you get your podcasts or live on Times Radio every Thursday from 10am.
