Labour's Kings Speech

House of Comments

It was the first Labour King's Speech in 14 years. There was no "Independence of the Bank of England" style surprise, but in its way the agenda for government was radical. Co-hosts Charlotte Henry and Emma Burnell dissect the loyal address and discuss Vaughn Gething's demise as Welsh first minister.
