Starmer's successor? – Who is Shabana Mahmood?

From The Bunker – News without the nonsense Podmasters

Today in The Bunker, Zoë Grünewald is joined by Rajeev Syal, home affairs editor at The Guardian, to unpack Mahmood’s rapid rise and what her ascent tells us about the future of Starmer’s government.
