Episode notes
As regular listeners know, Danny likes to say there is a market failure in political coups - but does Keir Starmer's handling of the Peter Mandelson vetting crisis mean we're entering a period of maximum danger for the PM?
How will Labour MPs react if their party does as badly in May as the polls predict, and what do they think about Starmer's potential replacements?
Sally, Danny and Hugo are joined by pollster Luke Tryll to discuss focus groups - how much the parties rely on them, and how Phillip Gould used them to help Tony Blair change the Labour Party.
