Full Frontal's Amy Hoggart On The British Political Meltdown

Comedian Amy Hoggart—of Full Frontal and the “What’s Left” Substack—joins Cliff Schecter for a fast, funny hour decoding the political chaos across the Atlantic. Keir Starmer just became the least popular prime minister in recorded British history, got shoved out in a bloodless “coup,” likely to be replaced by Manchester mayor Andy Burnham.
