i know lisa nandy very well.ian newspaper for 18 years and not know lots of people in the labour party very well. this is your career you talking about — lisa nandy, i know her very well. work for the guardian for that long, you get to know lots of people in the labour party and i know two big things about lisa nandy. 0ne, she is a woman of enormous integrity. secondly, she is incredibly clever. and because lisa nandy is incredibly clever, you have to look at every single word she says very carefully. so yourfirst question to her committee, can you guarantee that no—one in the labour party was involved in a conversation about the speaker's future job prospects? lisa nandy said, "yes, i believe i can." she said i have had numerous conversations with each keir starmer come up with the chief whip, with david lammy, the shadow foreign secretary, and the idea of this sort of thing would be done is for than birds. but only after the second question. rather than making a political point, ijust wanted to highlight to vie

lisa nandy, the latest to throw her hat into the ring. of those people who had said over —— wigan, that she was considering whether or not to stand, and tonight she has confirmed ina stand, and tonight she has confirmed in a letter to her local paper, the wigan post, that she is indeed throwing her hat in the ring to be the next labour leader. her argument is that labour needs to focus on winning back its heart lands, areas that had voted labour for decades, and stopped doing so back in december. let me just read you one paragraph from what she says. she says, i'm standing because i know too many people in places like wigan no longer feel they have a voice in our national story. basically, she is saying that there are many parts of the country that feel disaffected with westminster politics and the best solution to that is to get someone best solution to that is to get someone like her who is representing one of those areas in to sort out that issue. i must say, just phillips who announced she was standing a couple of hours ago it has qui

wise are such strong support for lisa nandy?fficult question? how are you going to bring us back to power and unite the party? the overwhelming majority felt that lisa nandy was a breath of fresh air. she understands the extent of the challenge that we have a mountain to climb. she was the one with the optimism, innovation, the ideas, the creativity and a decisive result and one am proud to back subway the differences between her and keir starmer and getting his agency nominations... why do people think that she has notjust the edge right away reps from every region dow was there a stance towards a london candidate? i think in the movement, we talk too much from the prism of our own eyes. people across the uk wa nt to our own eyes. people across the uk want to see someone who they can trust, who speaks for them it has the same experiences and have been through life's challenges like they have. lisa nandy one that by a mile, we had no discussion about whether it should be a woman, it can't be a bloke not met it was none of that.

here's lisa nandy, speaking a short while ago.ussion about the circumstances around the case and some of the decisions that have been made during that case and also since. obviously, lam particularly concerned to make sure that people have confidence in the bbc and i think the director general made a good start yesterday in going out to be as open and transparent as possible with the public, both about what the bbc knew, but also about why they made the decisions that they did, and the use of taxpayers' money, which is obviously very important to a lot of people. i think we all recognise that there is a job of work to do to get more information into the public domain, to reassure people, not just about the decisions that have been made, but also about the action that the bbc will take going forwards. my concern is to make sure that warning signs are caught, that complaints are acted on, that public money is used well and to make sure that, as far as is humanly possible, that we don't have a repeat of this situation in the future.

lisa nandy welcome to political thinking. hello.eel being a political spectator in effect at this extraordinary time of political crisis? i mean, i probably shouldn't say this. it's not good to start a podcast, is it, by saying, i shouldn't say this, but, you know, in some ways it's sort of quite a relief for it not to be labour at the centre of all the drama. we've had huge amounts of political upheaval on our own side and you know, us being the party that isn't going through that, that is unified, is and looking out to the country is a good place to be. but when you park the politics, which of course, we'll get to in a second, do you also watch open mouthed and think, my goodness, how is this happening? a bit, actually. yeah. so we've got used to lots of political drama in the last few years and it's almost become the norm. but there's something really extraordinary about what's happening to the conservative party at the moment. when borisjohnson fell, i was sitting on a bus in berlin. we'd gone over there to look at what was happ

the culture secretary lisa nandy there.ng is the growing controversy over the algerian boxer imane khelif. she is through to the quarter—finals of the women's 66 kilo category after her opponent, italy's angela carini, abandoned the bout in 46 seconds. she tookjust one punch to the face and then walked to her corner where she was heard saying "it's not right". the italian boxer was in tears after the match. she told reporters it was the hardest punch she had ever taken and that she had stopped the fight to preserve her life. khelif is one of two athletes who was cleared to compete in paris, despite being disqualified from last year's world boxing championships forfailing to pass a gender eligibility test. again, here's lisa nandy responding to the story. i want to get your thoughts on the boxing match yesterday between italy and algeria, it has been billed as very controversial, over in 46 seconds, angela carini said she had to preserve her life so she had to stop the match and the italian pm giorgia meloni said it was not

lisa nandy, one of those saying she will step in. give us those saying she will step in.aign. us your political take on the labour leadership campaignlj us your political take on the labour leadership campaign. i need to say this at the top of this, the daily mirror, quite a key layer in most leadership contest, like the sun is for the conservative contests. we are withholding judgement. we want to listen to all the candidates. what i‘m saying is a personal view. actually, i am quite a strong admirer of lisa nandy. i think she speaks a lot of common sense. she is very rooted in her constituency of wigan. she understands it. her majority went down in the december election. but she compared the neighbouring seats which all fell to the conservatives, she showed remarkable resilience and bucked the trend. so that one bit of a red while held up there. and, you know, she is for deeply about what labour needs to do to reconnect with communities like wigan —— red wall. and all the other ones you can think of. so the downside, the problem she may overcome our she of. so the downsi

and lisa nandy has gone against party opinion on brexit.e with labour. i told her at the time if she brought a bill before parliament that gave a role for parliament in the next stages of the negotiations i would go for it. i was consistent in that all the way through. had she brought that bill, i told her and i told my constituents i would vote for it. when boris johnson finally did, i voted for it. she voted once for borisjohnson's deal, but against in the final version. but back to that passion she's best known for. towns are now the key marginals that will be the central battle ground for the next election. i think the government has started to understand that. i think all political parties have now started to understand that. her love of towns has really taken off in some of the stranger corners of the political internet, but it is a serious one. in 2018 she co—founded a think—tank, the centre for towns, as a response to what she saw as too much concentration on cities in economic policy. that is key to lisa nandy‘s vision for labour.

we had jess phillips and lisa nandy, both labour mps, fiercely critical of theirs. there are too many people in labour more interested in the party then getting new votes, and lisa nandy saying that labour has lost touch with ordinary voters and their day—to—day experiences. i expect the apology will beg more questions than it answers. and we are hearing more about boris johnson is it answers. and we are hearing more about borisjohnson is plans for government? we have mps coming into london today and tomorrow, a big day on thursday. another queen speech, a big moment for the new government. we already have an idea of the kinds of things we want to expect. this is the cabinet office minister michael gove speaking minutes ago. well, i think what we can expect is a recognition that the national health service is the number one focus of this government, when it comes to domestic policy. we need to make sure the national health service is properly funded and we will be bringing forward legislation to ensure that there is an nhs funding guarantee. that's the first and mos

lisa nandy, the culture secretary, has said she's been in contact with bbc senior management about the from a point of view of whether the bbc�*s internal processes for dealing with complaints is up to scratch is fit for purpose, to use that phrase, that often comes out in situations like this. he was speaking to me a short while ago and more on the bbc website as we continue to file the story. we have some breaking news from france. throughout the morning we have been circulating about what would happen today when the social security budget came before parliament. we are now getting reports that france's prime minister has forced through his budget bill without a vote. now that risks a no—confidence showdown. so he has pushed the social security budget through without a vote in parliament and this threatens the entire government and could see it collapse. we had some concessions being made earlier on today and understand that the prime minister made a last—minute concession and medical payments to try and persuade mps to adopt the measure. rememberthat persuade mps to adopt the measur

yeah, i think that is significant in the sense that lisa nandy has said she wants further clarity fromny. we understand she wants answers to some important questions, not least the issue of using public money in that way. she's talking about transparency, she wants to find out who made the decisions, when, and what structures and safeguards are in place at the bbc. it was fairly common for previous conservative culture secretaries to call urgent meetings with the director—general when the bbc was facing questions — and lisa nandy�*s team are making clear she isn't politicising the bbc, but it's in the public interest for questions be answered. but it does, of course, add the pressure on the people at the very top of the organisation. and this story is dominating the front pages of thursdays papers — let's take a look at some of them now. "edwards fall from grace" splashes the mirror. let's show you that again if we can. it was a bit brief, let's see if we can — nope, we are struggling with our papers. there you go. "guilty" leads the sun. the independent says huw edwards faces jail ove

they are weakened mp lisa nandy and the birmingham mpjess are weakened mp lisa nandy and the birminghamred that they will be standing. i think from lisa nandy we can expect to see an emphasis on the so—called labour heartlands, those parts of the country, particularly in the north of england where labour performed unexpectedly badly at the recent general election, she will make a case of somebody representing one of those community she will be especially well—placed to make labour's case to voters there. i think forjess phillips, she is a long—standing critic of jeremy corbyn, so she will be appealing to those members of the labour party who want to see a clean break from the current leadership. she will be arguing that as an independent minded mp she can be the fresh blood that labour now needs to rebuild. of course the slightly strange thing about this konta so far is that the two front runners, the shadow brexit secretary keir starmer and shadow business secretary, rebecca long—bailey, have yet to formally declare that they will be standing. but we do expect them to both declare in t

he's the fifth person to put themselves forward after lisa nandy, emily thornberry, clive lewis and jesselements to his campaign. keir starmer today, coming out all guns blazing, he was on andrew marr a short while ago, we will come to that in a moment, but also this article in the sunday mirror, a campaign video. two bits to the message. one is about how labour cannot bury its head in the sand, it needs to reconnect with voters. but also, interestingly, keir starmer saying that labour mustn't get rid of all of those radical policies likes social security reform, that sort of stuff. you know, a green deal on climate change, more powers for trade unions. i think he will have two questions to answer, though. one of them is whether he is a bit too london and whether labour need somebody from outside of the capital. and also brexit. he was very, very closely linked to labour's brexit policy. here he is on andrew marr a short while ago on that labour brexit policy. people wanted clarity and leadership, but i actually... what was coming up on the doorsteps and what the teams were telling me, i
