Episode notes

Who is replacing Boris Johnson at Number 10 Downing Street? Rishi Sunak and Liz Truss have battled it out hard in the leadership race for the role of the UK’s new Prime Minister.

The pair have made their final pitches to Conservative members at leadership hustings, with the rising cost of living dominating the debate.

What challenges lie ahead and what are their economic strategies? To analyse we’re joined by Dr Jeevun Sandher, an economist and political scientist at King’s College London and the Evening Standard’s political editor Nicolas Cecil.
