The HuffPost UK Politics team take a look through the week's events in Westminster. This week, Jeremy Corbyn opens up the battle for control on his party's right flank (see what we did there?), we shoe-horn Roy Jenkins into proceedings once again, while Brexit might not be happening. Only, it's definitely happening. Also, the team look at the continuing repercussions of the Grenfell Tower and discuss the student debt problem with Jasmin Gray. #Jeremy Corbyn #Labour #Liam Fox #Brexit #Britain #Luciana Berger #Kensington #Grenfell tower #Conservatives  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

HuffPost UK Politics welcome back returning member Graeme for this week's podcast. The team discuss the DUP's confidence and supply arrangement with the Conservatives. Who will it best serve?

The HuffPost UK Politics team weave their way through the week's events in Westminster. Grenfell Tower and the response by local and national government took the spotlight, while Theresa May's government handed in a threadbare Queen's Speech for the nation. It was still too much for Boris Johnson to remember though. Over in Brussels, David Davis' "row of the summer" didn't even last the UK's heatwave. #Theresa May #David Davis #Boris Johnson #Grenfell Tower #Kensington #Jeremy Corbyn #Queen's speech #parliament #EU #Brussels  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

HuffPost UK's Owen Bennett sat down with Labour's Tom Watson to reflect on a quasi-successful election for Labour and try and work out what's gone right for Jeremy Corbyn all of a sudden. #Labour #tom watson #jeremy corbyn #election #ge2017 #conservative  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

HuffPost UK Politics team take a forensic look at the week in Westminster, which has seen Theresa May and Jeremy Corbyn swap monikers, he's strong and stable and she's the new ministry of chaos. Elsewhere, the fire in West London looks like it will too have a strong political impact as cuts and lapses in governance look to have played a hand in the devastation called. But is it too early to think this? #Jeremy Corbyn #Theresa May #Grenfell #tim farron #tom watson  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

HuffPost UK Politics take stock of a night of election shocks, spills and thrills. For the second time in three elections we have a hung parliament, a result that has left Theresa May in the firing line and with huge questions of where to go next for the Conservatives. Meanwhile, Labour celebrate like they've won but are the storm clouds gathering again? Lib Dem struggle to keep ahead of the minnows but have they seen progress?

HuffPost UK Politics continues on the campaign trail, stopping by the BBC and Sky studios for the leaders' debates. The team showed more interest in the television spectacles than Theresa May, who ducked out of the 7-way clash on Wednesday. Has that cost her votes? Some Tories are so angry with her they've resorted to swearing at Owen about it. Jeremy Corbyn may be on the up, but Tim Farron is struggling to achieve lift-off with his constant lambasting of Brexit. Surely even the Lib Dems are bored of that now? And with the polls narrowing, are we on the verge of saying hello to Prime Minister Corbyn? #jeremy corbyn #theresa may #amber rudd #election #ge2017 #general election #tim farron #labour #lib dems #conservatives  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

HuffPost UK Politics take a look at the week in politics, which this week took time to stand with the people of Manchester following the terrible events of Monday night. With campaigns on pause, questions need to be answered on whether police cuts by the previous government have made the police's job harder, which wasn't helped by the US intelligence services' open policy with the media. The team also take a look at the stories that have taken a back seat as the country comes to term with the terrorist attack. #theresa may #police #britain #ge2017 #conservatives #terrorism #anti-terrorism #manchester  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

HuffPost UK Politics report on the week in Westminster, which this week wasn't in Westminster much as the parties launched their manifestos. Jeremy Corbyn tried to show his working out, Theresa May is at the back of the class coasting by and Tim Farron is desperately trying to curry favour with the teacher to no avail. What does it mean? Well, much the same as the previous week really.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

As the election rundown gathers pace, the HuffPost UK politics team take a look at the week in Westminster. First of all, a leak from Labour HQ (or is it from closer to Corbyn?) sees the manifesto fall into the public domain. People seem to like the policies, but are they possible? Meanwhile, voters in Birmingham tell us they don't trust Corbyn to deliver much of anything but certainly not Brexit. Although, it hasn't been all bad for Jeremy, as his campaigning is starting to gain some visibility with voters. #jeremy corbyn #labour #manifesto #ukelection #theresa may #tim farron #vote #general election #ge2017 #conservatives  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

HuffPost UK's politics team take a look at the week on the campaign trail, which saw our intrepid team go beyond the bubble to Slough where it's clear Brexit is still being fought on, Theresa May sees her opponents whispering on the continent and Jeremy Corbyn's team spy their enemies holding microphones, running talk shows and er...podcasts. #Theresa May #Jeremy Corbyn #Diane Abbott #europe #EU #tony blair #brexit #general election #ge2017  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

HuffPost UK politics team take a look at the first week on the campaign trail. So far, the conservatives seem to be hammering home their message but will Boris be different?

The HuffPost UK politics team return from a well-deserved break, only to be thrown in the deep end by Theresa May and her snap election.

The HuffPost UK politics team take a look at the week in Westminster, which this week was dominated by Theresa May writing a letter. But what a letter. Yes, it's every "remoaner's" nightmare as Article 50 was invoked by the PM. Elsewhere, G4S might have not being doing its job properly, Nigel Farage was happy as Larry and talking World Wars. What a week. #Article 50 #Nigel Farage #Theresa May #Europe #EU #Brexit  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

The week in Westminster was overshadowed by events on 22/3, when an attacker drove a car at pedestrians on Westminster Bridge before attempting to gain access to the Palace of Westminster.

The HuffPost UK politics team try to get their heads round a bewildering week in Westminster. Philip Hammond was forced to back down over NI, not that Jeremy Corbyn could make it pay. Meanwhile, Nicola Sturgeon threatened to out-referendum Theresa May as David Davis announced that the details haven't really been looked at over Brexit. #theresa may #indy referendum #nicola sturgeon #scotland #SNP #Jeremy Corbyn #Tim Farron  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
