We have seen the best and worst of politics this week. There has been the Home Office shambles on Windrush and the searing debate in the Commons on anti-Semitism.
The issues may be cause to despair but amid the gloom we have seen Parliament at its best: MPs speaking from the heart, holding power to account and engaging in honest debate.
In this week’s Ayes to the Left podcast Jason Beattie, Nicola Bartlett and Dan Bloom pick through a difficult few days for both Labour and the Conservatives.
They examine why Theresa May and Amber Rudd got caught out by the Windrush fiasco, the government’s botched response and what are the political consequences.
They don’t hold back in apportioning the blame: how the Conservatives have used immigration for base political advantage since coming to power in 2010.
The Mirror’s political team also review the anti-Semitism debate which saw powerful speeches from Luciana Berger, Ruth Smeeth and others.
Has Jeremy Corbyn done enough to tackle the problem in the Labour Party?
And could it damage Labour at next month’s local elections? For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
