Politics returns to Westminster next week, with a Conservative leadership race, Labour's first budget, and party conference season around the corner. Host Liz Bates sits down with our deputy political editor Sam Coates to look ahead to what's in store for Prime Minister Keir Starmer when it comes to the trade unions and his first big budget. And Liz and Sam discuss the Tory frontrunners vying to be his main opposition. Plus, Sam's podcast Politics At Jack And Sam's is back every weekday morning from Monday, where he and POLITCO's UK editor Jack Blanchard explain what you need to know about the day's political news. That's out about 7.30am. Producer: Soila Apparicio Editor: Paul Stanworth Promotions producer: David Chipakupaku
