Coffee House Shots: should Labour ditch the ‘doom and gloom’ narrative?

Description

We have some new inflation figures today. Inflation rose 2.2 per cent in the 12 months to August. This is pretty much in line with the Bank of England's target and should be good news for Labour, so why do they persist with this doom and gloom narrative? 



Elsewhere, Labour's awkward week has got more awkward with the news that Sue Gray, Keir Starmer's chief of staff, is paid more than him. Surely they could have seen this news story coming? 



Oscar Edmondson speaks to Kate Andrews and James Heale.



Produced by Oscar Edmondson.
