Andy Burnham is expected to become Britain's next prime minister, and Nigel Farage has resigned as an MP, triggering a by-election in his Clacton seat.
POLITICO’s London Playbook goes live Tuesday afternoon with a series of interviews just days before Andy Burnham is expected to become Britain’s next prime minister — and after Reform UK’s Nigel Farage sensationally quit as an MP to trigger a by-election in his Clacton seat.
POLITICO spoke to Conservative Leader Kemi Badenoch — who gave her first reaction to Farage’s resignation as an MP.
Public First unveiled exclusive polling showing the challenge Burnham faces in the South of England.
Artificial Intelligence Minister Kanishka Narayan discussed the future of work with Assistant General Secretary of the Trades Union Congress Kate Bell and King’s Institute expert Elena Simperl.
Deputy Labour Party leader Lucy Powell — a close ally of Burnham — attacked Farage, but declined to say if Labour will take part in the Clacton by-election.
The Reform UK MP Farage has tasked with preparing for government, Danny Kruger, is interviewed at 5.45 p.m.
Chief Secretary to the Prime Minister Darren Jones — who opted not to put Burnham’s ideas to the test as a challenger in a Labour Party leadership race — is the final act of the summit at 6.05 p.m.
