Has the Spring Statement deflated Rishi Sunak?

Andrew Marr joins Ailbhe Rea on the New Statesman podcast.

As the fallout from Rishi Sunak’s Spring Statement continues, New Statesman Political Editor Andrew Marr joins Ailbhe Rea to discuss why it was received quite so badly and whether it has ruined the Chancellor’s hopes of becoming prime minister. Then, as partygate returns to the news, they look at whether it is now too late for the Conservative Party to get rid of Boris Johnson.

And in You Ask Us, they answer a listener’s question about whether the MP Jamie Wallis coming out as trans will change the way trans rights is discussed in the UK.
