The Winter Of Discontent 2.0

The Times' Rachel Sylvester joins us to discuss public service strikes and NHS reform, and to look ahead to government in 2023.

The worst concurrence of public service strikes since the 70s is rocking the government’s authority. Does the government’s refusal to talk look too unreasonable, and can Labour maintain its own precariously tough line? Plus NHS reform is back on the agenda. What does Steve Barclay have in store? And we take a whistle-stop tour of what’s coming up in 2023.

Our special guest is Rachel Sylvester, columnist and interviewer at The Times.

Presented by Alex Thomas with Nick Davis and Nick Timmins.
