Working The Machine: Whitehall Under Labour

Former Political Secretary to Tony Blair Baroness Sally Morgan and Institute for Government's CEO Dr Hannah White join Ayesha and Sam to discuss how Labour adapts to government after opposition.

In the aftermath of the Autumn Statement, this week we look at how after years in opposition, Labour can make the transition into government. How do you manage the machinery of the civil service and what traps lay waiting for a Labour administration?

What actually happens as part of the transition and how can Labour ensure that it is in the best position possible to be ready to hit the ground running upon entering government?

This and a whole lot more, as Baroness Sally Morgan, Former Political Secretary to Tony Blair, and Dr Hannah White, the Institute for Government's CEO, join Ayesha and Sam to deep-dive into the world of Whitehall.
