Last year’s Labour Party Conference felt like a moment in time. A Government that was already reaching historically unpopular levels just a year after entering office, a Prime Minister trying to solidify his position, and a certain Mayor of Greater Manchester being all the rage as he went between the fringe events and drinks receptions.

Cut to a year later and, well, some things have changed.

The Labour Party finds itself under new management and in a better position: regularly back on top of opinion polls, wresting the argument back from Reform and about to enter an autumn that will set the tone for the entire next political cycle.

With the most highly anticipated return to Parliament, leader’s speech, Budget and beyond for quite a while now, Compass Director Neal Lawson is joined by Paula Barker, Member of Parliament for Liverpool Wavertree, and GUEST TBA, to discuss it.
