On today’s New Statesman Podcast, Stephen Bush, Anoosh Chakelian and Ailbhe Rea discuss the new measures announced by Rishi Sunak – and whether his star is falling – and the response from Andy Burnham that has seen him dubbed “King of the North”. In You Ask Us, they answer your questions on how seriously we should take a politician’s voting record.
