Would Ed Miliband be a good chancellor?

As our first special guest on NAO, John McTernan makes the case for a soft-left duopoly in Downing Street and we all disagree all over again on net zero policy - even more fiercely. We debate Badenoch's decision to "purge" Gavin Barwell and whether party leaders are wise to set policy tests. Plus: the implications for access to our politicians of Ann Widdecombe's dreadful murder.

Is Burnham right to max-out on devolution?

For this week's three-part "Tapas" edition, the team serves up a debate on the PM-in-waiting's first big speech, chews over the rows behind Starmer's Defence Investment Plan, and looks at the fight for the right as Farage and Badenoch jostle in Burnham's shadow.

Is Andy Burnham ready?

The new MP for Makerfield took his seat in the Commons on Monday. By the middle of next month he will almost certainly be prime minister. Does he have a programme for government? Has he had enough time to prepare for the mountainous challenges ahead? Do the wider electorate know enough about their next prime minister? For everyone’s sake, the answers need to be yes. Here at least are the answers from our team.
