New House of Comments episode: You'd think there's an election on.
This week Charlotte and I discuss the two big speeches of the week from Sunak and Starmer.
t's been another busy week in Westminster, with a number of senior figures making major speeches. Rishi Sunak kicked off the week, with Sir Keir Starmer following Thursday. Jeremy Hunt also made comments on the economy on Friday. It feels like the election campaign is well and truly under way, and co-hosts Charlotte Henry and Emma Burnell analyse it all.

I wish it’s July. Desperately want this over and done with before the holidays.
Hunt’s speech a bit of a joke today. The man is shredding any reputation he had for being a sensible mainstream politician
