About this episode
New immigration figures show two noteworthy things: arrivals are down but a lot of voters think arrivals are up.
Meanwhile, Andy Burnham says those figures need to come down further – to the chagrin of some in Labour, and also us because he said that after we'd finished recording this episode.
Alex and Kenny dig around the data from several sources and try, tentatively, to work out what's going on and why.
And, in the week that Rachel Reeves was subjected to some particularly nasty heckling from a Reform supporter – only to have Nigel '£5million Security Donation' Farage offer to buy the heckelr a pint – they ask where the line should be drawn when it comes to public-politician interactions.
Plus, burnout has been thrust into the spotlight by Greens MP Carla Denyer announcing she's taking a break. But what is it, what are the symptoms and what can you do about it?
