Coffee House Shots: Steve Baker on how to oust a Prime Minister

Category: News & Politics
Duration: 00:12:49
Publish Date: 2026-05-15 23:01:00
Description:

On today’s Saturday shots, James Heale is joined by former Conservative MP Steve Baker to discuss the fallout from Wes Streeting’s resignation and the ‘orgy of chaos’ that has ensued.

Steve takes James inside the dark arts of a Westminster coup: why numbers matter, why you should pay attention to individual grievances, the importance of discipline – and why Labour’s rebels may already be getting it wrong. As Andy Burnham plots his return, do the people of Makerfield really want to be caught up in a by-election that will not be about local issues? And is Burnham as good as he thinks he is?

Produced by Oscar Edmondson.
