Wes v Angela: The battle commences

Is the Labour leadership contest about to get messy and plunge the party into chaos?

Sam and Anne start the day expecting Wes Streeting to resign as health secretary to spark a contest, but a new intervention may have changed everyone’s calculations.

Angela Rayner has said that an HMRC investigation into her tax affairs is over, paving a way for a challenge. But will she join the contest and can Andy Burnham find a way to enter the fray?

The duo analyse the developing situation and ask whether it will be straightforward or complex showdown with the PM.
