141: McSweeney: the man who made Starmer and his ties to Mandelson

Well, and again, it's another big challenge.

Pod Save the UK
141: McSweeney: the man who made Starmer and his ties to Mandelson

Do I think it would be powerful?

Pod Save the UK
141: McSweeney: the man who made Starmer and his ties to Mandelson

Yes.

Would it be a vote winner?

Pod Save the UK
141: McSweeney: the man who made Starmer and his ties to Mandelson

Only if they're very, very careful in how they communicate it.

141: McSweeney: the man who made Starmer and his ties to Mandelson

The thing that frustrates me is they're not shouting about their successes enough.

Pod Save the UK
141: McSweeney: the man who made Starmer and his ties to Mandelson

They're doing really, really great things.

I don't understand what the thinking is, because there's loads more to do, but they have done a lot, but they haven't told anyone they've done a lot.

It's nice for us to bring a conversation to a close on a note of some positivity, though I will say increasingly as we talk about the Starmer government on a week-to-week basis, the phrase that occurs most often is, I don't know what they're doing.

Pod Save the UK
141: McSweeney: the man who made Starmer and his ties to Mandelson

Yeah.

Whose fault is this?

Pod Save the UK

Is it science?

No.
