This week, we are joined by economist, political scientist, and academic, Dr. Jeevun Sandher, whose work and research focus on the causes and consequences of poverty and inequality in the UK.

In this episode, we spoke to Jeevun about his research and asked him to set out his priorities for how to tackle this country's growing inequality. We also discussed the fallout from the mini-budget and the damage it continues to inflict on the country.  On a more hopeful note, and in light of Labour's record-breaking leads in opinion polls, we reflected on The Labour Party's economic vision and some of the big announcements from conference.
