This week on Despatch, we ask whether Labour’s deputy leader is about to fall victim to her own class war. Once the scourge of Conservative ministers accused of impropriety, Rayner now faces her own reckoning over unpaid stamp duty. Yet her life story – from single mother at 16 to the country’s second-in-command – makes her both Labour’s populist powerhouse and a figure of fascination for some Tories.


William Atkinson of The Spectator explores the political theatre, the stakes for Keir Starmer, and why Rayner’s survival could reshape Labour – and perhaps Britain’s future leadership.
