Matt Forde's Political Party

Let's go back in time five years and see what, if anything, has really changed...
In 2021 Andy was Mayor of Manchester but was clearly developing his thinking on where power in the UK lies.
This is a great mix of thoughtful political analysis and riveting behind-the-scenes detail as Andy tells the incredible inside story behind his showdowns with the UK and Scottish governments. He also tells the heartbreaking story of the Hlllsborough families' long campaign for justice and his role in changing the Labour government's position, including the moment he stands in front of a packed Anfield at the memorial service.

From Hollywood film director to campaigner against the evils of Big Tech, via the House of Lords.

Beeban Kidron is a force of nature and her new book 'Users' charts the rise of Big Tech and crucially tells us how we can fight back.

This is a fascinating and hilarious interview with a national asset who has dedicated her life to fighting injustice online.

Oh, and there's a cracking story about Patrick Swayze and Wesley Snipes.

Prepare yourself for a big fat dose of political optimism.

Jeremy Hunt is asking a big question: can we be rich again?

His latest book seeks to answer this and before he gets into what needs to change, he also believes that there's plenty to be cheerful about.

How can the government quickly deliver growth?

What makes the UK uniquely placed to benefit from AI?

What's his personal best London Marathon time?

All this and more in a refreshingly positive take on politics.

This is a cracking briefing from Labour's Deputy Leader. On Makerfield and what happens next for the party.

Lucy takes us inside the heart of the Labour Party... do Labour MPs and members actually want a leadership election? And what would happen if there was one?

Are the issues that Labour faces actually to do with Keir Starmer at all?

Lucy is also a massive football fan, but how does she behave at games... the answer may surprise you.

PLUS... beauty tips on how to look 20 years younger.
