Description

What was it like to be handed the reins to the economy following the Liz Truss mini-budget collapse? How did Jeremy Hunt feel fighting an election that he knew the Conservatives would lose? How would Thatcher have dealt with Trump? 




Alastair and Rory are joined by former Chancellor Jeremy Hunt to answer all this and more.
