Clive Lewis came by the PoliticsJOE studio this week to break down the runners and riders in a potential leadership challenge against Keir Starmer.
After a disastrous showing in the local elections, questions over Keir Starmer's leadership of his party - and the country - have only intensified. Particularly from within his own ranks, the Prime Minister has been battling against backbenchers eager to share their fury with the running of the party.
Clive Lewis has long been a critic of Keir Starmer, calling last year for Andy Burnham to take his Norwich seat in order to contest a leadership election. Today he joins Ava to break down where his party goes from here. Subscribe to How to Rebuild Britain now: https://linktr.ee/howtorebuildbritain Hosted on Acast.
